Burrito, Dennis Pasco.

Mission Street, San Francisco. The wide variety of lettering signs are mostly hand-painted. Made by the painterŐs own skills without regard for typography. It creates a vernacular that I only associate with the Mission. Small family-owned stores sell everything from shoes and clothes to pastries and groceries. Mission Street has a market feeling to it due to Mexican influence. I tried to capture the variety of its signs of the stores, markets, restaurants, and bars, whose rough edges are decorated by Western and Mexican motifs.
