A routine call to Bootstuck quickly turns into a tour of the town’s rapidly expanding art scene. With Caleb busy hanging pictures “upside down but sideways,” it’s revealed that Bootstuck has recently welcomed an artist — and the results are… unconventional. Caleb’s latest project involves painting the outside view on the inside walls of the house and the inside of the house on the outside, creating what may be either a groundbreaking artistic statement or a logistical nightmare.

Elsewhere in town, artistic expression flourishes in many forms: Dave’s spaghetti sculptures, handcrafted beaded bracelets, and a series of increasingly confusing pictures of pictures. Plans are also underway for a full Bootstuck art show featuring “artisanals and art facts,” though organizers remain wary of one very enthusiastic attendee known only as Waving Tony.

As usual, the cultural boom raises more questions than answers — but in Bootstuck, that’s generally considered a sign that things are going well.
