BREEDERS CUP
Crewest Studio has partnered up with the Breeders Cup this year and I am one of the 5 lucky L.A. artists who is turning a life size fiberglass thoroughbred into a piece of public art!
My horse titled "PONY UP" was on display at Pershing Square (in DTLA) during most of the month of October. It will now be on view at Santa Anita Racetrack to celebrate the Breeders Cup starting this Friday Nov.4th and 5th.
The other four Crewest artists included in this campaign are: Yolanda Gonzalez, Andre Miripolsky, Michael Massenburg, and Clinton Bopp. Check out this cool little video that the Breeders Cup put together:
See you at the races!
NUVISIONS STUDIO - INTERIOR MURAL
Recently I was commissioned by the cool guys over at NuVisions Studio to create one of my large black and white graffiti spirits on their wall. I had been wanting to do this character for a while now and this was the perfect setting for it! My first Go-pro time-lapse of a mural and some great pics by Gil (Onionskin Photography). Shout out to Greg and the whole crew out there!
MAN ONE X PANTONE
Every year Pantone announces it's color of the year to a global audience of eager fashion designers, interior decorators, brands, designers, and basically anyone who deals with color in their perspective fields. Pantone reached out and asked if I would participate in helping them with the early December launch for the color of the year. Of course I said yes!
This year was a first on many levels for starters there would be 2 colors of the year not one for 2016. Named Rose Quartz and Serenity I was asked to bring my creativity to the table. So using Venice Beach as my back drop I created a signature "Man One" graff style focusing on the pastel hues at hand.
That day the sky decided to be in agreement and mimicked the colors I was working with. Wow! Couldn't have asked for a better result. I also created some bespoke Pantone inspired spray can labels just to add that extra touch. Thousands of international Instagram views and comments later, I say it was a successful launch!
Man One signature spray can series for Pantone. Coming soon??
Getting likes on Pantone's official Instagram account.
The morning after.
Thanks to this collaboration I was featured on a few websites like: LATACO and PFSK
Aside from my mural here in L.A., we (CrewestStudio.com) helped orchestrate other murals in Miami and New York at the same time. Check out the work over there by my crew mates Marka27 & Werc.
