My Favorite Taco ~ Shepard Fairey
The taco lifestyle crosses all boundaries and includes anyone who wants to be a part of it– emerging art stars born in South Carolina are no exception. Graphic designer Shepard Fairey, who made his name on the streets of LA, is a resident and promoter of our city even when he’s attending art premieres in London or putting his work up on the streets of Copenhagen. A massive influence on street art, our city, and the taco lifestyle as a whole, we’ve been wanting to ask Shep about his favorite taco spots for a long time…
Reached by telephone, Shepard was unequivocal about his favorite taco spot: Cactus Taqueria #1 in Hollywood. His whole crew from his business, Studio Number One, digs the tacos and burritos at Cactus, and can be found there on the regular.

Awesome artist.
His style is so consistent and brutally contrastfull.
I think he is too depressed to create beauty, so he chooses to create motives of his fears instead.

He has sold out.
I loved the creativity of his original artwork, but he has now become what he originally mocked.
How sad
