I AM ANGEL MURAL
I was asked to paint a 10'x16' mural for will.i.am's charity "I Am Angel Foundation".
The star studded event and pre-Grammy party called TRANS4M BOYLE HEIGHTS featured live performances by the legendary Stevie Wonder, Ne-Yo, Flo-rida, and the Peas of course (minus Fergie).
Here are pics of my mural and the event itself. Congrats to the I Am Angel Foundation for raising $5mil to help support youth in Boyle Heights!

BMW CAR HOOD
Timelapse video of a BMW car hood I painted for my URBNLUX exhibition in October 2011 at Crewest Gallery.
Here's a pic of me with basketball great John Salley in front of my piece.
Painting on car hoods has become a favorite canvas for me over the past few years.
I like the smooth and glossy finish when I'm done clear coating them.
A few other hoods I've painted...
"Man On Hood" - featured in "Street Cred" at the Pasadena Museum of California Art in 2011
Hood commissioned by H&H Auto Body
"Eazy E" from the Boyz On The Hood exhibit at Crewest in 2005

UPDATE:MURAL ORDINANCE PLANNING COMMISSION HEARING
Photo courtesy of IRW©2012
Yesterday I attended the Planning Commission Hearing in L.A.'s City Hall on the new Mural Ordinance Draft and was able to provide my own public commentary alongside 25+ other fellow artists, muralists, and art lovers. We are close to getting this mural moratorium ended and getting a new mural permitting program up and running. I don't think everyone will be 100% satisfied with the final ordinance but it should be good enough to get muralists out there and doing our thing. My main issue is with the proposed $199 permit fee. I think the permit should be free and not cost artists or building owners anything to get one.
To find out more about whats going on with this issue here is a link to the draft:

The Commission is accepting written statements about the issue until February 8th, 2012
Please send letters, comments and support. LA muralists need it!
