Urban Art Farm

At long last, we are finally ready to paint the wall at 926 Turquoise!  The tortoise will be coming down to make room for Gloria’s Blue Bird.  Gloria will get started this Friday and will be around all weekend.

Come by for a chance to meet Gloria and watch her work.  Urban Art Farm will be hanging out and Schaffer Visuals will be filming the process.

Thanks again to everyone who has helped us move this project forward. This is truly a community project and we could not have got this far without your help.

Seedless Storefront - Caleb Aero (2008 - 2012)

Time for the new year and time for some new art!  Caleb Aero has painted many walls in Ocean Beach: Apogee’s Storefront, the alley side of the Barbecue House, and, until now, the storefront of Seedless.  His ‘green girl’ has decorated the Bacon Street wall since 2008 and Seedless is ready for a new piece.  

Ryan Preece, Zoke, has just begun the new piece over the old mural.  He has been working with Seedless since 2003 when he helped with some print work.  More recently, he has painted the side of the their van and the ’Grow Yer Mind‘ mural by Seedless’s on-site skatepark.  An Ocean Beach/Point Loma local , he has also collaborated on the storefront of Portulgalia with Pres.   Read More…

"Pugsly" from the "Landsailers" series by Neal Bociek

There are many art projects that utilize San Diego City’s utility boxes, but none are as creative and quirky as the “Landsailers” series by Neal Bociek.  This steel sculpture art trail follows the San Diego coastline starting sequentially with five pieces in Pacific Beach and five more in La Jolla.  Another great project by the San Diego Commission for Arts and Culture, these pieces combine elements of land and sea travel: sails, wheels, and sleighs.  This is a temporary exhibit that has been in place since August of 2008 and will be removed August of 2013.  Visit our La Jolla and Pacific Beach pages for pictures and maps, or check out Neal’s site.
