Art is everywhere, as long as you walk bright-eyed and present through the world. And, yes: even underneath your soles.
There's beauty to be had in this wild, wonderful, weird city around almost every street corner. Be it a splayed mural tucked away in the Mission District, an urban installation erected atop a swath of green space deep within Ingleside; those bits of creativity canvassed on the slabs of sun-warmed concrete lining much of Downtown and beyond. But it's the latter medium—the city's sublime sidewalk art—that's perhaps, San Francisco's most overlooked artistic expression. (Not to mention that a few of these bouts of semi-permanent curbside art even come with tongue-and-cheek nods to pop culture.) Treating your eyes to gaggle of our favorite painted walkways.
