Martin Luther King Jr. Wheat Paste by Hugh Leeman


Dig this one.

Too many times it seems street art gears towards celebrating celebrities.

It is nice to see some hype for the true heroes.

By Hugh Leeman.

In Echo Park.

  1. PPretty sure Zombie is not the artist. I saw on The Dirt Floor that Zombie was the artist on the above piece. I think it was a Mel Gibson with the words crazy behind it. Can't say for sure he's not involved with the MLK work but I don't believe so.

  2. The artist is Hugh Leeman. We were both featured in the Living Walls Conference.
