El Mac

EL MAC is a Los Angeles born painter who began painting public murals and graffiti in the mid 90s, and since that time has developed his unique visual aesthetic and rendering style which utilizes repeating contour patterns. His work draws on influences from classical art, social realism, symbolism and devotional art, as well as the Mexican and Chicano culture grew up around. He is known for his meticulous paintings and murals around the world honoring ordinary, overlooked, or marginalized people. For over twenty years he has aimed “to uplift and inspire through careful, perfectionist renderings of both the sublime and the humble”.
