Gardena Neighborhood Poster

August 23 - October 24, 2010 Los Angeles Metro System In 2009, I was commissioned by the Los Angeles Metro system to submit a painting proposal for their "Neighborhood Poster Project," specifically focusing on the city of Gardena. Of the proposals that were submitted, mine was chosen for the final commision and was turned into two posters. These posters will be exhibited throughout the LA Metro's trains and buses for two months.
