Such a great and informative read about Richmond’s street art scene! I now have so many spots I want to check out. I always love stumbling upon a mural or some other form of street art when I’m walking about. It’s hard not to feel inspired when reading this book!

Excellent introduction to the artists behind many of Richmond, Virginia’s great murals . Before reading this fine book, the only of these artists I knew by name were Hamilton Glass and Ed Trask. They are both interviewed here, as well as many others who share insights about their work on Richmond’s walls.
Thanks to Chop Suey Books in Richmond for publishing this!
