Nestled under a few layers of paper across from the gum wall in Pike Place Market, I locked eyes with a piece from Xavier Lopez. I love the way it has aged amidst the rest of the graffiti on this freedom wall. A newcomer to the scene is Neon Cult who has also been featured on Left Coast Letters’ blog recently. Surprisingly enough another wheat paste graphic was in their thread as well from Xavier Lopez Jr. Nice work sir. Looking forward to seeing more work from both of these artists, and I’m still proud to have a piece from Xavier guarding our living room.
