7 San Francisco Artists to Eye


San Francisco is a place that’s filled with creativity. As such, there are lots of artistic people here to adore. This is only a partial list but it introduces you to some of the artists I know of in the city who are doing some impressive things:
• Adrian Litman – After over twenty years of working as a commercial artist, Litman switched to doing more of his own stuff and he’s doing it well.
• Clint Imboden – Combining photographer with found object mixed media art, Clint creates works that are worth taking a second look at.
• Ginny Mangrum – Ginny is a local photographer who does black-and-white photos that take public spaces and give you a new perspective on them.
• Jessica Stafford – This mixed media artist with a feminist focus did a series of birth control collages that I found interesting.
• S.N. Jacobson – Jacobson’s photography could be considered risqué but I just see it as beautiful.
• Salma Aratsu – This India-born painter has made San Francisco her home and adds to its beauty with her own artwork.
• Scott Mickelson – Scott’s use of color in his paintings is what really drew me in although his interesting choice of subject matter is also worth noting.
San Francisco is an inspirational place so there are plenty of artists other than these to give your attention to but start here to begin exploring some of the art being created in the city today.
