Paint Jam 7 at Essex Modern City

A new mural by @soupLAWS in back of a building shaped like the Alamo at Essex Modern City with a train and the Tower of the Americas in the background. That's a very San Antonio kind of scene.

Paul Garson and Essex Modern City once again brought in some of the most talented mural artists from South Texas this weekend.

The result is a fresh collection of art on these outdoor walls on the East Side of San Antonio.

Essex Modern City is located by the intersection of South Cherry Street and Essex Street, just east of IH-37 and about a mile south of the Alamodome.
