Streets: Greg Simkins, Dabs & Myla and Jersey Joe Mural @ Static Medium

Posted by juggernut3, May 21, 2010

Yesterday, we tagged along with Greg “Craola” Simkins (featured), Dabs & Myla and Jersey Joe to watch them create a fresh mural christening the new location of Los Angeles print studio Static Medium. From 8am to the late afternoon, the artists took on the blazing sun with tons of spray cans using their crazy nozzle skills. They even got some love from the locals as they worked this urban beautification project. More pics after the jump…

Update: Dabs and Myla return to Australia

Posted by Ken, April 1, 2010

The duo of Dabs Myla have returned temporarily to their home country of Australia after a year long stay in Los Angeles.

Posted by sleepboy, December 10, 2009

As the last part of fall gives way to winter, Andy Kehoe gets set to open his show “The World Unseen and Those In Between” at Thinkspace Gallery. How appropriate – as Kehoe’s paintings have become synonymous with the autumn spirit, at least in our minds. His palette includes oranges, browns, and yellows with imagery including leaves, trees, and foliage of the season, as well as the strange creatures that inhabit his world. He opens along side Dabs Myla’s “Earthquake Weather” and Jesse Hotchkiss’ “Learning [...]

Amidst the living legends, old school heroes and contemporary street artists taking part in this year’s Primary Flight, AM was excited to see the whimsical and well worked wall by Dabs & Myla whom you’ll remember we visited last month in Los Angeles. With an upcoming appearance at Thinkspace Gallery, expect good things from our favorite Aussie couple. More pictures after the jump.

Art Focus: Dabs and Myla

Posted by Ken, November 12, 2009

AM had the opportunity to sit down with the recently transplanted Australian duo of Dabs and Myla – a couple of artists that we’ve had our eye on for a while.

While Dabs creates the characters, Myla renders the washed out backgrounds and intricate cityscapes. Their individual voices harmonize together with near symphonic results, the [...]
