Chopping Block: Greg "Craola" Simkins
New Interview by Prints on Wood
For most of us, childhood ends where peach fuzz sprouts into the first few chin-hairs or when "nap time" suddenly becomes a fond yet oh so distant memory.

Streets: Greg “Craola” Simkins x Lyte (Redondo Beach)
Sleepboy from Arrested Motion shared photos taken by Birdman, of the wall I painted with LYTE on Monday....
After a successful showing that opened last month in Los Angeles (covered), Greg “Craola” Simkins (featured) went back to his roots recently and painted something on the streets of Redondo Beach. Collaborating with Lyte/THC, a fellow crew member from CBS, the duo beautified the wall with their letterforms while throwing out a shout out to 2SHAE in the process. View photos here...

I had the pleasure of painting the Container Yard with my buddy and crew members Self and Lyte a couple weeks ago. Big thanks to Jordan Ahern for capturing the day and making this video and to Landon Taylor for taking the pics! Happy New Year!
