Blood in, blood out': The Story Behind an Iconic Mural

In 1993, director Luis Valdez brought to life the gritty true story of Mexican-American gang warfare with 'Blood in, blood out.' Starring Esai Morales as Chicanito and Danny Pino as Slocum among other notable actors like Jesse Borrego, this film quickly became a cult classic. However, there's another star worth mentioning - Adan Hernandez, the talented artist behind one of its most iconic scenes.

The mural in question is located at 1500 N Flores St., Los Angeles CA 90026 and has been fading away little by little since it was first painted over two decades ago. The final scene from 'Blood In, Blood Out' features a group of gang members engaging in an intense shoot-out outside this very location.

Adan Hernandez himself is responsible for bringing the vivid imagery to life on those crumbling walls using his unique street art style which captured both the raw emotion and gritty realism that defines LA's Latinx community so well during that time periodasco..

In recent years, there has been growing concern about preserving historical landmarks like this one before they disappear forever. In response, Hernandez teamed up with JAS FINE ARTS to create high-resolution images of his work as a way to preserve its legacy for future generations.
