Homeless Man in Park - Urban Picasso 6-22-11 4:30p

I ask this this man what music he was listening to and he replied all kinds! I also asked him what does he do when the batteries run out, and he said buy some more, and then he asked me, what do I do when my batteries run out? I smiled and said I buy some more too, that’s when I stashed a five dollar bill in his hand and thanked him for the photo.

Palace of Fine Arts San Francisco - Urban Picasso 6-23-11 6:30p

Excellent tourist destination for travelers but it’s in my backyard so this was another opportunity to see while I was visiting Fort Mason on business.

Metal Artist working on Mongoose Bike - Urban Picasso 6-24-11 1:30p

I love the arts and when I stopped by this iron fabrication business I couldn’t help but ask to get some shots of this artist customizing a Mongoose road bike.

Fencing Gym in San Jose - Urban Picasso 6-25-11 9:30p

Fencing is an exciting sport once you get the understanding of its roots. An extremely fast sport once their point of strategical offense kicks in. I’m tempted to join in this sport while I look at the satisfaction of accomplishment on Fencer David’s face.

Jazz Pianist and Vocalist Spencer Day @ Los Alto's jazz on the plazz 6-22-11 - Urban Picasso

With a smooth vocal reminding me of a cup of designer coffee, Spencer’s voice is like a cross between Michael Buble and Harry Connick Jr. I notice during the break he spent some time with a good friend of mine and this shot came afterwards when he saw me zeroed in. Threw his hands up with a giant smile during the tune for the shot and went back to business without missing a bar. Too cool!
