Ben Slow in Los Angeles

British street artist Ben Slow is visiting the City of Angels and is already hitting Hollywood hard.

M&F showed up just as Ben was getting started on this wall on Hollywood Blvd so we don't have pics of the finished piece yet.  Here are some action shots of Ben beginning to apply white the background, which he said he loved the way the thick white drips came down the wall.

Ben will be in town for another couple days, accompanied by his beautiful assistant Sabira.  It is awesome to have big names like Ben Slow coming to LA, and Ben says he has plans for another politically loaded mural while in town.  Look forward to Ben's art in Los Angeles.

Stay up!~

Qtip the Cat at Banksy

Qtip is also caught up in this Banksy craze, and so we took her to visit the Banksy pieces and do a photo shoot.

Banksy's English Bulldog is kind of like the Mona Lisa in that no matter where you stand, it always seems to be looking at you.

Cool Shot Cop

We like this shot, and all the little action.

There is a tiny sticker of what appears to be a British Cop at the bottom, and Enine sticker up top.
