Nisse Greenberg
Nisse Greenberg is wearing pants despite the fact that is shorts weather. It was just a mistake, but it’s a mistake that will haunt him for minutes. Soon he will put on shorts and then think about art some more. He really likes art that he makes and also sometimes art that others make. You should check out his playground at Nisse Greenberg. It’s full of art that he’s made. Mostly he tells stories, but also he writes things and teaches math-like things.
