Description

On a black wall, a woman with an artistically distorted face raises a fist in the air next to spray painted text which reads "PUT A MASK ON FUCKERS." Her other hand is holding a frying pan, as a threat. The woman appears to be older and is wearing a loose fitting blue dress and sandals with socks.
Underneath the painting, on the sidewalk, is a black painted oval consisting of 6 concentric oval lines. It is in the form of an "urban zen garden," painted by @sacsix. @sacsix has painted multiple "urban zen gardens," but is interesting that these two paintings are juxtaposed.
