The Streets of San Francisco: Market to Channel Collage by Brian McDonald

Collage: Paint, Acrylic, Ink, Watercolor, Found Objects on Paper.

My “Streets Of San Francisco” series reflects the density, grittiness, and diversity of the amazing city I call home. Inspired by the dense, urban grid of streets, each piece in this series weaves together layers of paint and collage to create patterns of structure, movement and depth. The street names, themselves symbolic representations of specific neighborhoods, become fragmented and poetic as language is pushed towards abstraction.
“Market To Channel” follows the layout of streets in the South of Market neighborhoods. It is framed using archival materials, protected by UV resistant plexiglass and is ready to hang! Perfect for anyone who has ever left their heart in San Francisco!!
