Collection: San Francisco paintings

Although I have moved away from San Francisco, my love for the city grows stronger by the day. Before I knew it, I ended up with an extensive collection of paintings reminiscing of the everyday lifestyle in the City – walking up the neighborhood heights, picnicking at the park, hustle and bustle of downtown traffic, taking in the sweeping view of the city intermingled with nature. Sometimes it takes a bit of time away to appreciate and cherish the good old days!
