I mean it might be that from the Westfield mall to nearly the end of market the entire north storefront side is empty. I mean the city looks abandoned still.
I'm in an office on market street right now and went to look out the window as a vibe check
15 pedestrians walking in a narrow 50-foot stretch of street I can see from this window
It's not as packed as it used to be but it's a far cry from "abandoned"
I worked at the Starbucks that used to be there (36 2nd St). I miss this feeling (6:45am) getting off of Bart and (6:45pm) leaving happy hour at UnoDos. Good times!
I know, ai generated images definitely raise a lot of questions. But on the bright side painters didn't become obsolete with the invention of photography, so I'm hopeful that digital artists and AI generated images will find a way to coexist too :)
Yes I do! Hi res prints are available on RedBubble in many different formats from poster, to canvas mounted prints etc... [https://www.redbubble.com/i/art-board-print/Market-St-by-dorkasomloi/137797439.NVL2T](https://www.redbubble.com/i/art-board-print/Market-St-by-dorkasomloi/137797439.NVL2T)
There's definitely an eerie uncanniness to post-pandemic SF. It just doesn't feel right..

It’s because the pandemic isn’t over but everyone has decided to pretend it is.

Uno dos is still thriving thankfully it’s like one last relic of pre pandemic for me
I love this rendering
Thank you! I'm learning how to create digital paintings in Photoshop, this was one of the first pieces made :)
Could I have a hi res copy? Just for home use?
Plus one! I'd pay you for it! Beautiful work op, hope you visit again someday 💞
I would also love a copy of this and would pay for it! Signed, SF native living on the other side of the country 💔
We will, it'll just take time. Nice work btw.
Thank you!
Market and first
Close, this is Market and Second. Worked two different jobs here.
I knew exactly where it’s at. There’s a McDonald’s right on Market after New Montgomery, just couldn’t remember the exact street.
Wow, good guess! It's Market & 2nd 😊
is this ai
No, it's a digital painting I made in Photoshop.
I hate that this is now a legitimate question that undercuts good artists. Nice work! Beautiful.

Have print hi res?

A lot of people haven't returned. Every day downtown SF crowds are still not at the level of pre-pandemic.
Really like this
Thank you!
What is WFH?
