Westmont/Inglewood
I decided to choose my new neighborhood to get to know it better and the streets, which is bit complicated because I'm not to good understanding streets I get lost easily.

Location/ Hyde Park
Purpose/ Educational, empowering and think different.
This mural art is colorful and gives me hope in the humanity and power the community by this powerful words. This mural reminds me of school, I went to Crenshaw Magnet High School and they usual use the world "culture and empower"I believe this 2 words are strong and connect well for this world and to us. This mural is in a spot that can't be seen by everyone is like a gem that you need to look for it. I found an account scanning the QR that is Bottom right side.
Location/ Florence Ave
Unknown Artist
Purpose/ How time change, recreation.
This mural is impressive but not much to say people don't have a comment to say but I'm sure a latin America made it since it shows a old man in the same spot that is painted, I would like to think that they recreated this imagine.
unknown artist
Purpose/ Honoring past family life from cancer
Location/ 9425 S Vermont Ave
I was driving to home in the morning and I saw this painted mural in the row of the streets and sees interesting because of their colors and details. Many stories behind this paint, many pink ribbons; breast cancer awareness, it probably be someone die from that in that specific street because it shows streets sign. I believe it's just not women it seems a lot of them have die in that street because it shows painted names and women angel have written "Jessica"

Purpose/ Promoting, family
It was interesting how this poster was next to the other in the above image. It's a celebrity family; Justin and Hailey Bieber and their baby. I always pass by this road and I have noticed but this time I noticed it because is was part of the project and I realized that there's a lot of public art outside where I lived, just you need to look for them.

But it's interesting how is painted.
Location/ 5816 S Western Ave Los Angeles CA 90047
Purpose/ Expression, and freedom
I pass by this area and my first impression. was "wow that a lot of grafitty in that corner, I didn't took a photo from all of them because I was driving alone. Personal I think this kind of graffiti is vulgar it does look art to but for other people might think is cool or awesome. Shows a lot of crazy drawing and worlds.

Purpose/ Peace, empowering African American
This image shows a large letter "PEACE" the letter "A" is a kid with a big smile like an expression of peace and freedom.
This graffiti I found it in the Main Street from Normandie Ave, I was in traffic at 7:40am and I saw and I took a photo because I have seen many in my way to work and I don't the time take a photo.
I enjoy each mural that I found around my area, I concluded that my area is like street art such as graffiti, without name and description of title. I believe this mural are this way because for many this is vandalism. I do believe that this is not vandalism because art is freedom to paint and express yourself and sometimes this art are the less support it. For longtime street art has been popular and beneficial for those that are in gangs, for me this not bad because their way is art, in art there's not Barries and also graffiti has been inspired form many designers in Fashion, such as Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Fendi and much more.
At first I answer that is a group of action or solo, by speaking out loud to protest or make a movement for their community, helping improve the community like solidarity.But now I believe that civic engagements that help the community to see the art and ask questions and created a chat with someone else to gather more information.
The art from my community says about race, peace , culture, memories and help each other, the more surprising for me was that many murals didn't have name or description to gather for documentation but I understand that many graffiti artists from graffiti are not supported by the community because for most of them art graffiti is vandalism.
I will probably change to view other places as compared with your neighborhood, I believe it is more interesting and also you can say which one you like more.
Yes I believe this project will reach out for my community and I realize that there is a lot of art in the area that I live in and I didn’t realize it when I moved in a year ago.
I would like to say that I am glad I chose this course, I enjoy doing the assignments.
