23rd and Mission
This was done by Victor Reyes in 2010. Reyes has several murals around San Francisco.
Reyes has been painting since the early 90s, and has shown extensively around the world in cities and countries such as Bosnia, Germany, Switzerland, Taipei, Japan, and Miami. Reyes is inspired by his peers, including a community of new California artists “The Seventh Letter,” who play an integral role in the development and motivation for his body of work. Reyes, who has no formal art training, moved to San Francisco in 1998 and took a variety of jobs for rent money – he’s a freelance illustrator now.
Reyes did the black and white on this mural that can be found on Washburn off Mission near 9th Street. The colors were done by Steel and Revok.

Gorgeous! What a great way to liven up a drab city wall!
I like the very graphic style of his work!
I forgot to mention that yes you do get red dust all over your shoes and even the dust on your car is red in PEI.
The colors remind me of Alaskan native lithographs. The designs however are all his own. Intricate and organic feeling.
I like his work but get the feeling that I’m being closely watched…everything has an eye!
Fantastic set of murals. I like them all.
