I painted this 200 foot long mural in East LA last month. It was sponsored by DickiesGirl on one of their buildings and I was given pretty open range to create. I decided to create a giant MAN piece across the front with Pinky and the Brain characters standing off to one side. On the parking lot side is the second much smaller mural of about 15' x 45' with a similar theme but this time Pinky and the Brain are on the moon, "Continuing Our Invasion".
We lost "LA Batalla"
As I was strolling through East Los the other day I stumbled upon a work crew removing one of my old murals. The owners wanted a new facelift and decided to sandblast the entire wall.
This mural was created in 1998 and got lots of respect from the neighborhood. The theme of the mural was the Battle for Humanity or "LA Batalla por la Humanidad".
It took me 2 months of off and on painting to prime, buff and spray paint the 30' x 80' mural all using my own buff and spray paint.
The mural was self-commissioned (meaning I didn't get paid) done for the love of the art.
Eventhough I'm gonna miss not having it around, the old folks home accross the street will miss it more as they go back to staring at a blank wall...
