Tony Mora in North Hollywood posts photos of the wall murals he finds at carnicerias, mariscos emporiums and taco stands. The Valley is his usual canvas, but he has been known to get over to Compton and East L.A. "I've always had a fascination with them ever since I was a little kid...This is my tribute to those paintings and the artists that made them." The large one is from Evergreen Street, the smaller ones from Panorama City. Head over to So Bad Its Good for the full effect and many more. Hat tip to the Hot Dog Spot.
