MAINTAIN'S WRITER OF THE WEEK: AXIS CBS, VT, TFL,









Its been a while since I highlighted any graffiti artist on the Maintain Blog. For all of you that don't know how I go about doing this. The Maintain writer of the week is a tribute to Los Angeles graffiti writers that have been doing their thing consistently for 20 years plus. This week I would like to showcase some of AXIS CBS art work. He has been a staple in the L.A. graffiti scene for decades and has a very clean and original style that can only be attributed to him. He is among one of my favorite graffiti artist. Big ups to axis.

This week we were at CREWEST  during the L.A. art walk. They have a real cool show up this month. I did not get the name of the artist but I was blown away by the glow in the dark art work.
