Spray paint the walls of Los Angeles. Four real places every writer in the city knows, alive with people walking past.
Get it on Meta QuestThe Venice Art Walls on the sand at sunset: free-standing concrete slabs covered in years of pieces, palms down the boardwalk and the Pacific breaking behind you.
Down in the concrete channel at blue hour, painting the piers of the 6th Street Viaduct under its glowing arches, downtown lit up beyond and a freight rolling past.
A warehouse yard on a gold afternoon: painted brick, a roll-up shutter, power lines, a rooftop water tank, a taco truck and the downtown towers.
The pink wall and the stucco shop walls off the avenue, palms climbing to the Hollywood Hills and a lowrider hopping at the curb.
Cast concrete, stucco, painted brick, cinder block and a steel shutter, each with its own real surface for the paint to sit in.
A full colour wheel on X and skinny, medium and fat caps on A. Hold the can still and close, and the paint runs.
26 letters plus stars, crowns, bolts, hearts and arrows. Stick one on a wall, spray over it, peel it off.
People stroll the boardwalk, queue for tacos, take selfies at the pink wall and stop to photograph your work. Traffic, trains and the surf keep LA moving.
