SEE NO EVIL IN BRISTOL

We just wrapped up painting in Bristol at the See No Evil Festival.  I represented LA along with my crew mates Vyal and Werc and the homie Mear One.  Here are a few highlights, wifi has been a bit dodgy so look out for a more in depth report next couple days and more pics as well.

COUPLE OF INDIANS ON WINSTON...BUFFED!!

Me and Vyal created this new piece last week on the corner of Los Angeles St and Winston in DTLA.
The piece attracted a lot of positive attention in the Skid Row area and even business owners noticed a slight increase in sales the week that it was up.

 Somehow, mysteriously, as of August 7th, the mural has been buffed, erased, GONE!

 The only witness to the buffing was a security guard at the Jeffries across the street.  He said it looked like a city crew but the Downtown BID and the Office of Community Beautification graffiti abatement crews have all gone on record saying they were not involved.

 If anyone has any information as to who might have done this please let us know.

 Anyhow, enjoy the pictures of what once was...

I was honored by our LA City Council for my service to the community

has been around showcasing local and international talent to our Angelinos.

Thanks to LA City Council today for the recognition! @janperry @josehuizar @tomlabonge @lamayorsoffice

It was a treat for me and my family to be honored in this way.
