Carmegedon Art "Hey no cars go""


I Saved the LA Times Sunday edition from the weekend of "Carmagedon" and used it as background to create this piece.  The details of the Mayor's quote can be seen in a photo but got covered up by some of the later imagery.  The Mayors office sits on the car less 110 fwy.  There is a dividing yellow drips that break open the composition and add a highway feeling.  Tried to contact LA Times to sell publish the piece and this is what response I got so far.  Sallie Hofmeister from the LA Times wrote.. "this is very touching, however we do not accept unsolicited art work. …but thank you for your thoughtfulness.
