We happened upon local San Francisco artist Elliott C Nathan when he was starting this wheat paste mural on Bartlett at 24th Street in San Francisco. He had lots of newsprint, his own formula paste, photos of each artist on large papers and a camera set up on a table to capture him pasting up the mural. The mural was to commemorate some artists who have influenced the manner or style in which he creates, as well as those important to sf and mission culture.

The mural is now finished. Since wheat paste street art is typically quickly done in the middle of the night we thought you might enjoy a quick glimpse of how it is done.
