Willie Herrón III attended Otis Art Institute and Art Center College of Design. In 1972, he associated himself with Patssi Valdez, Gronk and Harry Gamboa Jr., later known as “Asco”. At this point, he also began creating murals. In addition to doing mural art, he has done street performances and commercial art. He now owns his own studio and creates faux finishes for commercial and residential murals. (Robin K. Dunitz, Street Gallery, Guide to over 1000 Los Angeles Murals)
