Was quite pleased to see a nice review of "Depression-Era Murals of the Bay Area" in yesterday's SF Examiner by Jim Van Buskirk.
http://www.sfexaminer.com/sanfrancisc...When I was a teen, my parents took my brother and I to see a number of the Diego Rivera murals in Mexico, and I've had a life-long interest in Depression-era art.
I took painting lessons in my youth, but thankfully for everyone's eyes stopped that. Some still survive to remind me that a day job is a good thing. :-)
Living in the Bay Area gives us access to some amazing public art -- most of which is free (public) to view. It's a good legacy from a dark time.
