Jacksonville is Street Art Famous

More specifically Springfield is street art famous. When your photo shows up on the Obey Giant website, you know you’ve made it. I took this picture of The Pearl Friday and three days later it shows up on the homepage of one of the most influential street artists of our time. Bam!

I will sleep soundly tonight. I love you Internet!
