ABC7LA Puppy Palooza T-shirt designed by Teachr

ABC7 has teamed with local muralists to create wearable works of art for a good cause! The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Los Angeles (spcaLA) is an independent, nonprofit animal welfare organization serving Southern California since 1877.  ABC7 will donate its proceeds from Snow Commerce's sale of this exclusive Teachr-designed t-shirt to support the spcaLA, so they can continue their programs and services including cruelty investigations, disaster animal response team, violence prevention humane education and a variety of shelter services.

A decade into a career sparked by a personal, deeply felt, and urgent need for education advocacy, Teachr’s affirmational conversation-starters have evolved and expanded in scope, topic, and above all, visual artistry. Both imparting and gathering wisdom as he goes, the artist’s gift for graphic clarity is increasingly enhanced by a unique, painterly vision and a dedication to a diversified studio and material practice -- as well as empathetic, real-time responsiveness to the most pressing issues of the day, from economic injustice to political corruption, climate change and systemic racism -- all with a rigorously maintained appreciation for the importance of being an ethical, active member of a peaceful society.

Beyond the ubiquitous totemic logo/mantra and its exhortations to educate everyone equally, Teachr works along a unique continuum of the street and the studio, creating emotionally evocative images enlivened by deep palettes and rich textures, the better to advance narratives and bring more detail into focus for his city-wide audiences. From heart-strings pulled to funny bones tickled, puns enjoyed and points made, Teachr has more fully brought his entire background in arts to bear on his never-ending stories.
