One Tree

This is probably my favorite building painting to date. It has survived here since 1996, a mural that won Rigo 23, the artist, fame and acclaim.

One Tree mural, San Francisco, 2011.


Reading about Rigo 23 led me to all kinds of research about the Mission School art movement, Mission murals, and some of the stories of the artists behind the movement. Needless to say, I'm living in a lively district, in a lively city, whose story and art continues today. I hereby pledge to attend more art galleries.
