Spotted this killer mural on the side of a cafe near where Lagunitas is building their Chicago brewery.
Just another reason I love my motherland, great street art. Oh, and things like mini-golf in a funeral home.

Spotted this while driving into Carmel this weekend.
Though I missed the REBEL8 “Return of the Lost Angels” event by a week (video here and recap at Fatlace) I was lucky enough to drive down Melrose in time to catch the huge bomb Mike Giant dropped on the Shepard Fairey wall at De La Barracuda.

Spotted at Olympic & Lincoln, outside Company 3. First Skullphone piece I’ve seen in a while. Apparently his new show Digital Media has been running at Subliminal Projects and is wrapping up July 2nd. Watch the vid below.
Dots are big part of his latest wave of work, “Through painted pointillism, the imagery dislocates as the artwork is approached.”
Check out Skullphone‘s Digital Media show by Friday at Subliminal Projects in Echo Park. Or snag some prints in the online store.

If you’re in Dogpatch it’s at the foot of the old Fire Station 16 on Tennessee (between 20th & 21st).
