Robin Galante, Artist

My paintings celebrate the architecture, people, and spirit of San Francisco. My work has appeared in publications such as The San Francisco Examiner, The San Francisco Standard, The San Franciscan, SF Weekly, The Richmond Review, and The Bold Italic; and two books: Classic San Francisco from Mission Bay to Ocean Beach by Frank Dunnigan, and Telegraph Hill by Art McGinn. 

I grew up in the Bay Area, back when there were more apricot trees than office buildings. When I was little,my favorite thing to do was to sit at the kitchen table and draw, surrounded by crayons, pens, and pastels. 

I moved out of the suburbs to San Francisco in 2003 with the goal of returning to my creative roots and becoming an artist. It's been an amazing journey, full of detours into and adventures, and I'm so happy to be doing the work I love, in this inspiring city I call home.
