Graffiti Battle Royal Estria



We have all known for graffiti to be a big part of the hip hop game. From New York, to Chi-town, Hawaii and Paris amongst the millions of other places filled with artists. One of the many known graffiti artists that Ladies Lotto has had the pleasure to work with this artist, Estria. This artist has had incredible year. With a total of 14 murals under is belt this past year, which that alone was astounding.



Estria also made sure to hit up a few graffiti battles as well.




And to wrap up his crazy year with a book release entitled "Mission Muralismo" which Estria is featured in.
Here is a small excerpt about Estria

"Birthed in the early 1970s, a provocative new street art scene transformed San Francisco’s legendary Mission District into an art epicenter that crosses popular culture, fine art and political audiences. “Mission Muralismo,” is an ever-growing movement of accomplished street art combining elements of Mexican mural painting, surrealism, pop art, urban punk, eco-warrior, cartoon, and guerilla graffiti that has catapulted many San Francisco artists into the international spotlight.


Featuring over 500 full-color photographs and 30 essays, including artists R. Crumb, Shepard Fairey, Swoon, Barry McGee (TWIST), Rigo, and Spain Rodriguez, Street Art San Francisco comprehensively exposes more than three decades of this expansive and vibrant public art movement."


To check out more about the book "Mission Muralismo" go to

You can also catch more of Estria on January 11th at 6pm on fuel TV at the Estria Invitational Graffiti Battle.

10-year-old Graffiti Artist

Age 7, Solvieg likes to watch graffiti artists at work in her hometown Brighton UK. Age 8, she asks her dad for some spray cans and produces totally unadulterated, happy artwork. Age 9, she gets noticed by Graphotism Magazine. On her flickr profile she says, "Watch out for me. I am 10. I am female." Should I send her a Ladies Lotto application?






















Solvieg tattooed this guy's leg when she was 10. (Admittedly, at 10 I was pretty unaccomplished.)
















"I wanted to paint an elephant character so i did." (A rule to live by?)
