This building, 2008 Washington Street, is just up the street from me. I love walking by here and imagining I called this place home. It is next door to Danielle Steele's house, the old Sprekels Mansion, and across from Lafayette Park.

I feel like my art is very safe, so I am trying to push the envelope a little. This is a place on Van Ness Avenue in San Francisco that I walk past every day. It is not the prettiest or most well composed landscape I have painted, but I wanted something that was an urban landscape in its most natural state.
