RIP: Magu

Just heard about Magu passing away this past weekend. Very Sad! He was a creative and fun spirited artist and man. -- For those of you that remember he had agreed to allow me to be his studio assistant and curate an art exhibition of his work a few years ago. And just recently I have seen his work a BUNCH while I have been riding the metro back and forth. - You can see it filling the platform and walls of the Hollywood and Vine - Red Line Station. Full of life and energy!

He currently has a show coming up at Da in Pomona, CA. -- I'll post more info as it comes.
