Take It To The Streets

"Sometime when you get bummed out out here and somebody does hand you that twenty-five cents, three pennies, five-dollar bill or whatever, it means a lot. Even the big, old, gruffy gangster-looking son of a guns, they actually care too."
-William

Spare Paint is a two-part series that features San Francisco artists David Choong Lee and Brian Barneclo as they engage two
homeless men panhandling the rush hour traffic. They offer their talents to paint new, visually striking cardboard signs. In Part Two, we meet William, a home restoration specialist, as he shares his stories of what it's like to live on the streets and how he ended up there. Watch the interview on Walrus TV.
