last Friday i dragged franks with my to DTLA to go snap pictures of the infamous FTP Mural.
you would think that since i live in LA i'd know what's happening but alas my friends, i do not. i am the last person to ask.
apparently, this BEAUTIFUL wall was going to come down because several permits that were approved the first time around were no longer valid.
a super duper amazing fan started a petition online to save this mural and she got over 12,000 signatures. had i known, i would have been one of those. (see what i mean? no clue!)
even the mayor said "Heck No! its staying!"
you can read more about it here.
its amazing how people can come together for an awesome cause like this when need be.
enjoy the photos! (:
i work for a security company who does work all over DTLA. this was is actually a few blocks from several of our posts. i geeked out when in foud out! :D

Autumn is the chick who started this whole thing!

i would try to write down what it says but that bright pink bugs my eyes out on the screen! ahh!
