Mear One - New World Order

Rooftop mural from Mear One in Echo Park.

Entitled 'New World Order' the art features a young girl in front of a scary industrial wasteland landscape.

The Bigger the Pill, the Better the Feel-Good

All kinds of stickers getting stuck up and comboed on Melrose.

Slaps from Shie 47, Serch, Bankrupt Slut, Abcnt, Mear One, Paone, Dano, Very Top Secret, Take, Gusty Windz, Bloodbath, Dirt Cobain, Korsen, and a big pill.

The big pill looks similar to the art from Visual Narcotics that used to be all over LA.  Not sure if this is from the same, or a different artist?

Mear One & Ben Slow - A Closer Look

Here is a closer look at all the subliminal detail tucked into the 'The United Snakes of Imperialist Empire' mural from Mear One and Ben Slow.

The United Snakes of Imperialist Empire

A dope mural between the UK's Ben Slow and USA's Mear One.  This is entitled 'The United Snakes of Imperialist Empire' and features what looks like a dollar bill, with a double portrait in the middle of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher.  It looks like Mear painted Ronald while Slow did Thatcher.

Located at a hot spot at the intersection of Silverlake Junction.

Getting Poled Like a Glory Hole

Next to an entrance of a bombed out vacated building with a slammed graffiti yard behind Melrose, next to the entry way are stickers getting poled like a glory hole.  Slaps from Bankrupt Slut, HNTR, Stashr, Hare, Remio, 455er, Shie 47, Mear One and more.

No Brits at Brit Week

The festivities for Britweek went down last weekend in Santa Monica.  But as far as the street art was concerned, there were no Brits at Briweek (and technically no street art, either).

Two famous British graffiti artists Eine and Inkie were supposed to show up, but neither did.  Instead, it was only LA based Mear One and Man One painting canvases on the street.

M&F's on the scene correspondent/contributor Bill said that the Brit Week street art scene was disappointing.  He described it like this: "So we have Man One and Mear One doing canvases. It was typical "Downtown Santa Monica, Inc."  No signage as to who was who or what was what. No background info. No stickers No handouts. Man One had left and Mear One was on a break.  The woman who was hanging around the exhibit didn't know crap about what was going on - or care."

It seems surprising that since Downtown Santa Monica was a primary sponsor yet the street art was painted on canvases and not on walls.  Bill joked that Santa Monica should have stuck with Cinco de Mayo, instead.

Mear One Takes It Old School

Mear One is perhaps best known for his intricately rendered and detailed graffiti mural paintings.

But Mear One WCA CBS takes it old school with this letter based piece at Sunset Junction.

Mear One - New Videos

Mear One just dropped a couple of new videos, Humanity vs. The Machine and Time & Space--a collab with Risk from Art Basel Miami.

Both videos filmed and produced by Roger L. Griffith.

Just Another Day In the Yard

This yard with a broken gate on Melrose has been filled with all kinds of graffiti tags.

Getting up with Mear CBS, RBSC, Romser, Lyer, Tyer, ODS, Rye, Klozer, Bluntz and many more.
