City of Angeles

Graffiti artist K2S pays homage to LA with this piece downtown, or he pays homage to the abundance of beautiful women who live here! Either way, this is a great example of old school graffiti from a very talented guy.

Jesus loves his iPhone

Many people ask themselves "What would Jesus do?" …well, according to street artists Dabs & Myla, if he lived in California he would chill out on the beach in his Ray Bans sipping on a cocktail whilst he tweets on his iPhone… this incredible piece is simply beyond genius!

Everything is Green

Apparently it's not only captain Kirk that likes green women, so does LA based graffiti artist Asylm!

This piece was found just outside the Arts District downtown and is a great example of his can skills, one thing we also like about this piece is that if you look at the tree in the background, it seems to be blooming with spray caps!

Another Gregos piece has been located in LA! This one is on Melrose nestled in between a few boutiques & stores, we must have walked past it a few times before it was spotted. Either way, another great find from this superb new street artist.

In 1961 Consumer Reports reviewed spray paint. This was the start of something big for the art world, leading to the explosion of graffiti art on the streets. We came across this image on Pinterest and thought it was a cool look-back in time to a pivotal moment.

This aquatic piece was captured just off 1st street in Downtown LA & is part of a pretty impressive Asian inspired wall. This is rather funky Koi Carp (which is about 9 ft high) was created by Dash2000 & Nuke.

If you have been following the blog, you will know that we discovered a new street artist called 'Gregos' who has been attaching decorated faces to various walls all around LA. Well, here is another design that I found recently down at Venice Beach (which as also been superbly placed next to a Kristel Lerman piece!) As promised, the hunt is always on to find more work by this exciting new artist, so keep checking back for updates.

I found this wonderful piece in downtown LA, it's just one of the many that decorate the numerous parking lots in the Arts District. The artist involved in this amazing creation is Asylum… parking your car has never been so beautiful!
