Lydia from Mission Local came across this horribly lame news this morning:

Chris, who said he was from the collective Wallspace, was out this morning at 10:30 a.m. with two artists, Geso and Nemel, preparing to cover up the Seals on Bartlett and 22nd streets.

Lydia goes on to point out that most of the street is peppered with tags and blank walls, but the artists said the sea lions “had to come down.”
