	"Square Meal", a book created by Richard Tarlov. This book is made of heavy aluminum plates that were taken out of the old Levi's factory at 250 Valencia Street here in SF's Mission District. These plates were used to spread the heavy weight of storage shelves that held Levi's rivets, labels and other parts of the jeans that were made in that building since 1906. In 2008 the building was restored and remodeled to be the SF Friends School, the first Quaker school in the City. The aluminum pages (some still show faint imprints of "Alcoa") are held together with piano hinge. The book uses etching, grinding, scratches and various other coloring and texturing methods, depicts four phases of a meal. It was donated to the School for its annual tuition assistance fundraiser, in April 2010.
	On the gallery wall next to the cashiers you will see artwork by Saul Levy. Saul Levy is a local artist (in SF) and mainly uses watercolor as a medium. He generally portrays SF landscapes and landmarks, and has many paintings of Pac Bell Park.
	Alice Heimsoth lives and works in the Bay Area, dividing her time between San Francisco and western Sonoma County. She was a premature baby of the 1950's, born with visual difficulties that eventually developed into myopia. Her personal experience offered a foray into the world of nature through an up-close perspective of detail and delight. Alice draws upon her spiritual relationship with nature to share with us her process of seeking out the microcosms that exist beyond our normal field of vision and attention span. Her most recent body of work explores her love of nature and her unique perspective and process. Using a macro lens and a meditative stillness, Alice offers a glimpse into her wonderland of insects, flora and phenomenon.

	Anna Efanova composes with color and texture, and brings together different types of materials so that all types of textures coexist and become inseparable. A lemon and a scrunched up paper attempt to become related under the guise of an unraveling lemon. White flowers seems to grow from a white teapot. Within the composition, foreground and background play hide and seek, imitative mimics real,all owing to a sense of play and a painter's technical skill.
