Mickey Avalon's My Dick B-Side


^New version


^Micky Avalon's version


^Mar's Original Girl

Apparently the stencil campaign posted yesterday was done by Mickey Avalon. We dig his 'My Dick' song, but not being a dick on the streets.

Someone wasn't pleased the placement of an Avalon stencil over Mar's girl in front of De La Barracuda, and decided to reclaim the spot with a B-side version to Mickey's with a new stencil.

We like the new version a little better.

Love it or hate it, all this action is a great example of the conversation between artists on the streets of Melrose and Fairfax.

In less than a week, Mar's girl was cloaked by Free Humanity, freed from that, stenciled over by Mickey Avalon (or someone doing his stencils), and then stenciled over again. Melrose and Fairfax is so unique because of the sheer amount of street art taking shape daily.

We will keep an eye on the spot for any further developments~
