Our favourite area of San Francisco is The Mission where you find whole streets dedicated to colourful detailed street art. This mural was one of many in Clarion Alley.

Very cool! Love the colors and funky design. During our last visit to San Francisco we noticed a lot more quality graffiti in the Mission and other neighborhoods than when we lived there a decade ago. Glad the city is embracing graffiti/street art like this.
And, you can’t beat the Mission for an amazing burrito (aka, urban food log)!
We were really impressed by the street art in the area (and the burritos!). I hear the graffiti in Berlin is fantastic too – hope you are enjoying your time there.
First thing I said when I saw it “wow that is bad ass” & yup I must admit it really is. That is so cool. I would love that as a painting for my living room or somewhere in the house. I love the colors and the boldness.
It’s amazing that you can find artwork like this just walking down the street.
Wow, awesome shot!!!
Thanks Andi!
I love the colors & attention to detail – captured well in this photo. It reminds me of when I backpacked in South America and marveled at all the wonderful street art.
The Mission is a wonderful colourful area – much like South America in general.
Credits go to CHOR BOOGIE, if you would like to see more of his art!
Thanks very much for letting us know!
Yep, the artist is Chor Boogie. He’s got a ton of street art in San Fran. There’s a 50 foot mural of his just on Market Street, but probably temporary, since it’s painted on a barricade for a closed row of shops.
I’d recommend going down Clarion Alley in the Mission for a street art experience like none other.
We loved Clarion Alley. The Mission is just an amazing area.
Pretty cool mural. What size was it?
I’m rubbish at judging size but it was pretty big – a few feet above our heads at least.
am sending souljar love to this beautiful artist for brave lifeloving work. Thank you for your time and inspiration sweet friend!
