Monday Mural: Mike Dream

Here is another panel from Oakland's Wall of Fame.  It references Mike "Dream" Francisco, a seminal figure in graffiti art who died in 2000.  He is famous in the hip hop community and even has a dedicated page on a website in Djibouti.

I'll be out of town for a week.  Onward with autoposting.

    I found this mural to be very dramatic.

    This is a great one, couple of them here in SF aren't nearly that high quality.

    Mike "Dream" Francisco must have made quite the impact to have so many wall arts (and graffiti) dedicated to him. [I'll be out of town too, but have not had time to set up autoposts...]
