By Wayne Healy
Located in Palm Springs, CA
Self-portrait of Los Angeles Chicano artist Wayne Healy, at work on the press at Self Help Graphics.
Wayne Healy (born 1946) grew up in East Los Angeles, where political events in the 1960s stimulated his commitment to execute socially and culturally relevant public art.
