Xavier Lopez Jr. is working on the mural located near 17th s.w. and s.w. Roxbury Street for the White Center Lion's Club. He expects to be done by June 27 weather permitting.
The White Center Lion's Club commissioned artist Xavier Lopez Jr. to create a mural, joining the others put in place during the community Spring Clean event at the end of May. This work is going up on the wall of the building just adjacent to Walt's Mufflers on Roxbury Street and 17th s.w.
Lopez presented his design, a series of circles in vertical stacks flanking two lions in front of Mt. Rainier.
He anticipates the work will be done before the end of June.
"I'm working from the bottom up," said Lopez," who's father is also a muralist and whose work graces walls all over Los Angeles.
