Public installation No. 22; 4493 Beverly Blvd, Los Angeles, CA, 90004

Acrylic polymers on abandoned storefront panels; weekday afternoon, 2004.

This one was the first time I was approached by anyone for painting one of these. The owner of the property’s sister saw me painting the panels & called him immediately. He actually came through and was expecting a negative confrontation, but after a short talk, he understood what i was doing and gave me the blessing. He wasn’t mad, especially after i inquired about the history of the property as well as the amazing tile installation above, which I borrowed references from for my color direction.
