Beyond the comedic appeal of Benny Hill, Sacha Baron Cohen, and Aroe MSK, as an American I lack the ability to react to dry monotone import humor…
Umm…
TMD Crew touring New Zealand, painting and breaking it down…
The artist duo known as Dabs Myla paint one of their most ambitious walls up to date in Culver City, California during Christmas 2011, but we get an inside glimpse into the process, what the wall means for them, and how it relates to a tradition very close to their hearts.
Immediately following Mexico, I went out to Keystone and Denver, Colorado with REVOK and The Seventh Letter. Not really prepared for low to single digit temperatures, it was a fun but painful challenge trying to paint outside…
There was a very, very ugly character under those crew letters above.

techno remix coming soon…


Painting with East (Aste) & Taste…

While doing a signing in Mexico City I noticed a uniformed police officer in the crowd watching and taking a bunch of pics of me with his phone…
While signing dozens of books, shirts, hats and such, I was approached by this cop and asked if I could tag his undershirt. Be began to remove his uniform, bulletproof vest and such but asked that I tag on him inside and out of sight from the street corner cameras…
Not sure what more I can say about this. All I know is that I never would’ve thought this would happen if you asked me 20 years ago.
Intense dance…
Backwards on drivethrough…

Photos from a quick stint in wild ass Mexico.






Mexico City is full of panhandlers and street light performers. At a red light the old lady in the picture below, threw a piece of cardboard out into the middle of the street. She then did a spin and landed on top of the cardboard, backside down. Her granddaughter then ran out into the street and grabbed her grandmother’s hands and performed a series of somersaults. Considering how typical the two looked it seemed quite odd…







This guy is not a cop, he’s security for the bottom floor of our hotel. Ready for action with vest, fatigues, and shot gun.

Think twice before trying to violate the vending machines!



At first I thought it said “Los Angeles 4th Street”. But later I found out it said “La 4Ever Street”…
