  • Summary

  • Boston’s public parks are like open-air studios for the city’s artists and street performers. At the Boston Commons, Nick Shea attracts crowds with his one-dollar portraits and simple tools: a stack of index cards and a Sharpie marker.

    One Sunday afternoon in February, Mirjana Hutnik sat beside Shea to watch the artist at work and survey his customers.

    This episode was produced by Mirjana Hutnik and edited by Rebeca Pereira.
