Saw these way out east on Javier Mina.  They’re in the process of painting over them so get there quick.  Half are already gone.

So I was introduced through a friend to an artist living in my neighborhood and had the good fortune to be able to visit his studio.  Wow!  His work is reminiscent of Antonio Tapies in that his work has a texture that makes it appear almost sculptural with a odd depth that makes it glow from within.  I’m [...]

Daniel Lezama was kind enough to send me an updated web address so I’m posting it here.  The show is getting excellent reviews - I encourage everyone to get out and see it.

AK!! Indeed
Saw this on my morning run.  Very Banksy-like.  I hustled back home and returned with my camera.  I don’t suppose it will last long.  It’s a stick-on.  If you are, or know, the artist - claim it.  It’s good work!

Just had a tat done here and my man Stomper did me proud.  With a name like “Stomper” I was expecting some gnarly dude but he was soft spoken and very cool.  He’s been winning awards for over 10 years and it’s easy to see why - ask to see the book of his photos. [...]

UPDATE:  So I posted this a while ago but went back today and there’s a new web address under it.  http://www.matikarevista.com/.  Check it out!  It’s one of the most intriguing sites I’ve run across.  I’m not entirely sure what I’m looking, or how to navigate it but it looks fabulous.  Big up to these guys!!!
