start a conversation with a stranger

I was in the Hirschhorn today, and a man came up to me and began to ask me all sorts of questions that I could never answer, as I am not well-versed in art.

I like it. I like my explanations for it. I make it, sometimes.

But as to the juxtaposition of the elements of whatsit, I have no idea.

He then proceeded to paint my portrait. I asked him if he was an artist. He said maybe.

I kind of wish he was my grandfather.

But as I didn’t START the conversation…

I need to find some strangers to converse with.

Maybe I’ll type up some applications and hand them out or something.
