SAN DIEGO — A South Park flower shop was boarded up after it was damaged in a crash, and graffiti showed up a short time later. However, a mystery artist has painted a mural over the graffiti.

For Chaffins, 34, his mural mission is a positive replacement for graffiti that he described as “ugly and cluttered.” “I feel like art is my weapon to fight negativity,” Chaffins said.
