At the Mint last night
Live at the mint, Los Angeles from Steven Lopez on Vimeo.
Doin’ it to the groove. I promise the next time I paint I will use a different color palette.
The CRLA benefit
It was a hot day. There was so much food and art going around. My good friend Tazroc and I arrived at 2 PM and began painting on canvas while the event was underway. I chose to paint a portrait of Dolores Huerta. I met her once while I was going to school in Oregon. She [...]
Benefit for CRLA, Steamers, and the Mint
Tomorrow, the California Rural Legal Assistance (CRLA) will be celebrating 42 years of working with over 40,000 farmworkers, immigrants and rural families.

This Friday at Chula Vista
Jah Gallery , Urban Rebel and California Sound lighting are bringing a gallery show to the San Diego Masses. This is the second stop in this traveling show. I will have two pieces of work there. Both contrasting each other. My friend Saratoga Sake will be in effect. I really like his stuff and I’m glad [...]
This is an inspiration
I’ve watched this so many times. Mr. Icke talks about his awakening and how immaturity passes as adulthood. It helped bring perspective in my life when I watched it a couple of years ago. This interview gave me visuals and title for this artwork. Please watch:
