The Buff Monster VS Revok



I felt quite lucky stumbling upon a large mural Los Angeles street artist the Buff Monster had done. Here was one of his ice cream dream-lands in full Technicolor, enduring the elements at the end of vacant lot since 2004. Looking closer, I noticed that someone had added his or her two cents. But instead of painting over it, in a somewhat respectful way, the artist incorporated his or her tag into the mural. The words “PYSA SEVER REVOK” now shoot out of holes and from behind clouds created by the Buff Monster, or B.M. for short. My one complaint with the addition is that the “E” in SEVER blasts out in front of instead of behind the one monster in the landscape, almost completely covering him up.
Although REVOK gets a B+ for teamwork he receives a C- for sportsmanship. Buff Monster on the other hand, passes with flying colors (wink).

Location: 45 feet North of the intersection of Melrose and Fairfax, NE corner.

NOTE: Buff Monster is releasing a new line of toys and Mindstyle is hosting a launch party. Peep the link above for more 'fo.
