"What I do is find unique objects, like a manhole cover, fire hydrant, pipes, and I create fun, whimsical creatures from those," said Tom Bob.

His work can be found on streets and alleys in Long Beach, spanning from downtown to Bixby Knolls. Tom Bob gets the stamp of approval from property owners and city officials before leaving his mark.

"Street art is the most democratic art form in the world. You don't need to go into a museum to see it. It's for everyone," he said.
