This special project will give everyone an opportunity to be part of the tribute to Sage Stallone. Mr. Soto is inviting everybody to be part of this giant spectacular mural and document the progress of this historical masterpiece. “This mural is the final face of the 9 faces from the “Eyes Mural” that has many faces of people that effected Mr. Soto’s life such as Sage & Sylvester Stallone, Dick Clark, Kent Twitchell, Mr. Soto, his daughter and others. This is an opportunity to get up close and personal to his face” states Mr. Soto.
Mr. Soto has been a huge fan of Sylvester Stallone who been an inspiration to him in his own life and artwork. Ruben was motivated from Stallone’s personal experience as filmmaker in Hollywood and has produced and directed his own story of growing up in Echo Park. “I want to pay a tribute to this very talented actor that we all love,” admits Ruben.
At age 49, he is living like there is no time for tomorrow. He’s a single father of a seventeen year old daughter, an electrician for the City of Los Angeles, a muralist, playwright, and he just finished a movie called “Willoughby” (www.willoughbythemovie.com).
