Street scapes: San Francisco

by Patti Boker Elkon on January 28, 2010

The Mission district in the city of  San Francisco, California is chock full of street art.  So much so that I could not resist taking these photos if not for the pattern then for the colors, wow, such wonderful combinations abound.  This “Eyes of Buddah” garage door is just a hoot.  I am seriously in love with this idea. 

Most of the art is painted boldly on the front of the buildings and some of it is done in narrow alleyways.  Anyway you slice it, this stuff is simply amazing.
