This is my watercolor painting of Eastern Bakery at 720 Grant Avenue, San Francisco, California. This painting was for the theme of Memory for the 60 day and 60 theme Isolation Art Challenge. I grew up in San Francisco’s Chinatown and my adoptive mother, Jean Lum, worked as a waitress at Eastern Bakery in the 60’s through the 70’s.

As a fan of Van Gogh, and knowing that he painted images from his day to day life: houses, fields, people working, I decided to do the...

At least to the details that make it convincing... I left out graffiti on the walls, some window details, and other bits and pieces. There's a group of four people that I made three, by mistake. :) But I was okay with the end product.
