CITY OF ROSES

BEYOND THE STREETS presents Mister Cartoon’s iconic L.A.’s Finest digital mural NFT. The original mural was a hand painted installation at the MOCA Los Angeles for the Art in the Streets exhibition in 2011. A world renowned celebrity tattoo artist and designer, Cartoon set his intentions to create a mural that would honor his roots in graffiti. Understanding graffiti’s ephemeral nature, Cartoon painted an elaborate mural that would only live for the duration of the MOCA show and true to street art style was destroyed at the closing of the exhibition. The mural features a romantic street fantasy collage, mirroring real life characters from Cartoon’s own life experiences. The LA’s Finest mural pays homage to Cartoon’s L.A. using Cartoon’s signature black and grey tattoo style.
