Get Up, Stay Up

Big graffiti wall in downtown Los Angeles.

Pieces from Enik, Ekae, Mike, Hilo and a few more we can't make out.

With a fire extinguisher piece from LOE up top.

Basquiat Street Art

Basquiat is back at street at.

Well, really back as street art.

From unknown artist.

Up with some new pastes from Nomade on the art wall downtown.

Nomade - Tertia

Nomade goes big in downtown Los Angeles with this new piece entitled 'Tertia'. Click the jump for more

Nomade puts up this massive piece in downtown Los Angeles, and it is clean and professional as we've come to expect from them.

Tertia has great placement. It is located where the freeway spits out the traffic into downtown Los Angeles.

And, for those who don't know, Nomade does not use borrowed photographs or recycled images when creating their art. But the process is completely organic, from the content to putting up the art. If you dig what you see, you can see more on the Nomade Website.

JR Gets Faced

We have posted a few pics of this piece before, but we finally got a chance to go downtown and snap some shots of our own.

Awesome, huge, powerful piece.

And placed in a location where it (most likely) won't get tagged up.

The Art of Graffiti Wildstyle

Some beautiful and amazing things going on with a spray can in this pic-heavy feature of wild style graffiti in downtown Los Angeles.

Sick work. So intricate and creative that we can't make out the names, but really awesome work.

Tag em if you know em.

Slutty Photoshoot

Some cool, artistic shots of Bankrupt Slut downtown.

Cool shots and effects with these shots sent into us by PhotoJenInc.

Jennifer says she likes to make her photos 'talk', and we dig what these are sayin'~

Thanks Jen~

Get Up, Stay Up (Heaven)

Its always cool to see a big piece of graffiti up on a billboard. Its called a heaven, and this heaven is especially cool because it is not just one writer, but a showcase of big name artists.

Billboard pieces from Evak, Besto, KAS(?), WAK, Blants(?) and a few more tags.

Found in downtown Los Angeles.

Panda Heads

New stuff featuring panda heads on the art wall downtown.

Panda boy and panda girl hanging out on the art wall downtown.

Up with MCHN, Subs, Leba, Septerhed, Cryptik, Dint Wooer, Destroy All Design, Contra and many, many more.

Bite Me Pumps

There are 'Fuck-Me' Pumps, but these fierce heels with what looks like a cat skull on them look like they are ready to chomp.

We really dig this piece, the way the heels are stacked and then a separate black patterned piece layered on top.

On the art wall downtown.

Unknown artist.

Nudists in Los Angeles

Nudist beaches are actually illegal in Los Angeles county, but somehow these two buxom beauties found their way out into public. Click the jump for more

We have heard that a person would have to travel down to Orange County to enjoy the 'naturalist' setting, if one were so inclined.

This piece of nudist street art was found on the traction wall in downtown LA.

Unknown artist.

'Futbol' at MacArthur Park

This is LA~

Click the jump for more

MacArthur Park in downtown Los Angeles is always packed with people playing 'futbol'. (We saw a little girl wearing a shirt that says 'I love football', but clearly it meant to say futbol!). There is always a game going on here, so the city replaced the worn out dirt field that had been grass with this nice astroturf sodding.

This is not street art, but a slice of LA.

Shasta also says that MacArthur Park has some of the best squirrel chasing in LA. And the new Retna/El Mac mural just went up across the street. So if you live in LA, head on down to MacArthur Park, grab a popsicle from an ice cream cart, and indulge in this beautiful city of LA~

Hooked Up - Pop Heart from Gregory Siff

Got a beautiful hand painted 'Pop Heart' piece and more from Gregory Siff. Click the jump for more

Gregory Siff hooked us up with a dope hand painted 'Pop Art' stencil piece as well as some new pins and stickers.

Gregory has always shown a lot of love to M&F. We really appreciate it, and look forward to watching his career continue to climb. Thanks for the hook-up, Gregory!

If you are a fan of Gregory's, make sure to visit his live painting tomorrow at The Standard Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. All the details can be found HERE.

Well is THIS a Banksy?!

Another possible Banksy sighting, but this one is missing the yellow caution sign. Click the jump below for more.

This one appears to be the same stencil, but without the yellow back ground.

What do people think? Is this a Banksy? or a copycat?

Spotted by a_onsurez on the way downtown.

Banksy's Caution - How Many Are There?!

It is clear that the earlier piece we had reported found is not the same location as the piece on the Banksy website.

Is this 'found' one a real Banksy? or a fake? We just received an exclusive close-up of this found one. Click the jump to compare and contrast the pics of the new one with the pic released on Banksy's website.

The above pic is from the 'found' Caution piece. The pic below is a cropped shot of the pic released on Banksy's website. Although the application is a little different, it appears to us that these are both pieces from Banksy.

So, if there are at least 2, it begs the question- How many Banksy 'Caution' pieces are there?

The found one is located at Flower St and Washington Blvd. Big thanks to Cindy Bolf for sending us the detailed picture of the found piece. She says there is "no dripping." Thanks Cindy~

Surprise JR Street Art in Los Angeles

We thought we would have to wait another day for a new JR piece of street art from JR, but Jet-Set Graffiti, who are curators of LA's Free Walls Project, posted these beautiful shots of fresh work from JR in downtown Los Angeles.

Thanks to Daniel Lahoda for the pictures.

Friend Request Pending

'Friend Request Pending' - new street art in downtown Los Angeles.

It features the President of Afganistan, Hamid Karzai in front of a written message.

Oil Painting or Graffiti?

This face is so highly detailed, its hard to tell whether it is an oil painting or graffiti.

Click the jump below for more pics and info

This is actually a piece outside with graffiti artist/low brow art celeb Craola.

The artistic talent cannot be denied.

This is part of a collab piece between Craola and Dabs Myla.

Located in downtown Los Angeles.

Beautiful~
