Animal Paintings On Mattresses in Glendale

I've recently spotted two abandoned mattresses with large paintings of animals on them with text including "U R Beautiful" and "Love Yourself."  I saw the chimpanzee at Pacific and Vine, and the giraffe on Central near some dumpsters at the Glendale Galleria.  Have you seen similar paintings around town?  If so, e-mail me at tropicostation@gmail.com.
