Ripped up Obey print that was a voter rights poster, I believe. Funny that this little bit was a part of what was left. #SEstreetlife, #steveemigphotos
A wider shot of the ripped off, Obey voting rights print. San Fernando Valley, CA, 2020.
There's a lot going on in this shot. Red, white, and blue graffiti in the foreground, give it a kind of patriotic flair, then the abandoned motel, with an Andre' the Giant/Misfits, Obey icon on the wall. This building still had one or two people squatting in it when I took this photo in 2020. It's been torn down since. #SEstreetlife, #steveemigphotos
I call this one The Sea Captain, it reminds me of a scene of Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Carribean. This one is only one color, but is real cleanly done. I keep wondering if it's an actual Banksy. There's no tag of any kind, which most pieces have in this area. Studio City, CA, right outside the TV studio lot where I worked back in the 1990's. #SEstreetlife, #steveemigphotos.
This is a really well done graffiti piece of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It was about half a block off Hollywood Boulevard, in Hollywood. It may still be there, I haven't been there in a couple of months. There's a ton of good graffiti in this parking lot area. Hollywood, CA, 2021. #SEstreetlife, #steveemigphotos.
This one so reminds me of high school in the 80's in Boise, Idaho. Her name is Becky (it's on another sticker of her), and she's drinking a 40 from a brown bag. God, I'm glad high school is long behind me. San Fernando Valley, 2020. #SEstreetlife, #steveemigphotos.
I had a Latina woman I know who works nearby translate this one for me. I knew the first three words, wasn't sure about the last one. It's Spanish for "The vagina is ungovernable." That's for sure. #SEstreetlife, #steveemigphotos.
I've started a new personal blog on this same theme, check it out:
