Jessie and 6th
SOMA
*
This piece in Jessie alley off of 6th street is by Lango. It replaced his eagle that you can see here.
There are murals everywhere in the Haight, these are just a few of the better ones.
Jimi Hendrix by an unknown artist. This mural is at 1524 Haight Street, the home of Jimi Hendrix when he lived in San Francisco. It is now Ashbury Tobacco Center.
This doll is on the Bettie Page Clothing Store at 1529 Haight. (Bettie Page was one of America’s great pin-up girls). This mural was painted by Amanda Lynn. Amanda studied at the Academy of Art in San Francisco and received a Bachelor’s of Fine Art with an Illustration major. After school, she worked independently and freelances on many mural productions and theater set paintings.
If you are interested in learning more about Bettie Page – There is a wonderful article about her life and art here.
This series of murals is by Lango. Lango has been in this website many times, and I am a big fan of his work. You can more of his work here. This is a rough part of town, so I am not sure how or why this wall was chosen, but they are really just gorgeous.
