Mark Frauenfelder's Top 10 LA Painters of 2006

With the year winding down, LAist is asking famous celebs, local politicians, and other movers & shakers of LA to tell us what they thought were tops of 2006

Mark Frauenfelder is the co-founder of the wildly successful blog BoingBoing, which many charts rank as the most popular blog in the galaxy. When he's not telling people where to go on the blogosphere, he's helping people create amazing things via MAKE magazine, for which he is editor in chief. Or he's illustrating something that you'll probably never imagine came from the pen of a mighty blogger.
