"...in south central L.A., TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY..."

One of the things I love most about LA are the blank canvas' disguised as empty walls, buildings, freight trucks, or locomotives. I feel like a kid in a candy store when I come across a newly tagged train, or a painted up alley. My addiction to graffiti art has led me down skid row, trailing the tracks, and up alleys and side walls, most (if not all) in areas where my mother would cringe to know I'm at; and places where my little brother says, "yeah, but can mase counteract a gun from 100' away?" It is this obsession that led me to today's little adventure. I was headed downtown, actually in search of Giant Robot, which had obviously long been converted into an American Apparel, anyways, these are a few of the pieces I saw today (and yes, mother, in perfectly safe areas...this time:)

"Up again the wall, up against the wall..."

This guy had the same idea I had.

"I wish I had a big brother," mutter a on-looking homeless man.

This one was a love piece of sorts.

U.N.I.T.Y.

Make love not war!!!

I'll post more pics later of awesome walls and signs I captured during my "travels." But first, I must condense them:) Peace.
