Torrey’s Chalk art in North Beach

I just did a piece of chalk art for Arte di Gesso Italian Street Chalk Art on Vallejo, in front of The Shrine of Saint Francis for North Beach’s 54th Annual North Beach Festival. If you hurry, can go to Columbus and Vallejo and check it out.

This work has a bunch of hidden animals in it. See if you can pick them out: a cat, monkey, elephant, zebra and St. Francis himself. It was to honor Saint Francis, the Catholic patron saint of animals.
