This San Francisco jewel just reopened and it’s one of the best museum experiences I’ve ever had. 460,000 square feet that’s chock-a-block.
I am madly inspired to paint but, alas, my studio is 3,000 miles away.
We had a lovely mini-vacation by the Bay, eating all sorts of things and walking for miles and miles. We had amazing ice cream…
…at a place with this for its mascot…
It’s been a bit nippy and drizzly but that didn’t dampen the mood. We bought way too many books and saw so much art everywhere.
We saw all sorts of beautiful street murals in the Mission, including on one of my favorite of all streets, Balmy Alley:
I did see the following on a car’s bumper sticker…
…but then again it was on this car….
Oh, and I gave my talk at the HOW Design Conference about creativity and sketchbooks. At first, I was a little worried about the turn out…
…but ultimately hundreds of people showed up and many came up to say hi afterwards. If you were one of them, I hope you had as much fun in San Francisco as I did.
Tomorrow morning, back to New York. (I’ve done way too much traveling of late.)
