Children Playing Near the Freeway


Some cool art is popping up along the freeways in downtown Los Angeles.

This was a moving shot, but there were at least 5 children like this

There was somebody working on these at time wearing and orange vest.  It does not look like these are painted right on the wall, rather that they were somehow installed.  Not sure of the method.

  1. These were originally from the '84 Olympics.
