A CHANCE ENCOUNTER

This is how it went down… I was in downtown SLC at a store called Fice. I walked by and saw three individuals working on the side of the building, between Gallensons and Fice. I recognized some of the skillz so I went in to talk with the shop owner to find out who it was. I was told it was Mac and Retna. Immediately I was like, “crap I don’t have my sketch book on me”. I really wanted to share some of my stuff with these guys and talk to them about their art, inspiration and motivation so I spoke with Corey Bullough (Fice shop owner) who agreed to let me come back later to meet Mac and Retna. That night we chatted for a while and I showed them some TFL#! threads and got some great feedback. They were down and even signed my book. Cool dudes for sure.

What were they doing in SLC you ask? Well, working on a mural outside of Fice. If you’re in the area I’m sure you’ve seen the new 40 foot tall Virgin Mary on the SLC skyline. It’s quite a work of art. Below are some pictures of their work and here’s a link to their website.
