GraffitiPix and Prison Art Project Scheduled For Major Update

Graffitipix, the premier website for exhibition grade museum-quality graffiti prints from artists like Miss Van and FAFI is about to get a major overhaul and improvement.

The entire web site will be upgraded with additional new pictures from FAFI and Miss Van, as well as many other graffiti artists.

The long-awaited release of The Prison Art Project website is coming as well. This site, www.prisonartproject.org will be coming online in mid-October. Prisonartproject.org will be featuring hundreds of extraordinary original pieces by inmate artists incarcerated throughout the United States and the rest of the world.

There will be numerous prison art pieces featuring pen & ink, colored pencil, pen, graphite, Magic Marker, and more.

These "Outsider Art" originals range from smaller pieces, to many 8.5"x11" pieces created on notebook paper, to larger works created on linen from prison bed sheets.

You can see some new pieces posted on Graffitipix.com already, with many more to come.

Look for the updates to Graffitipix at around the same time as Prisonartproject.org. There will also be an emphasis on women graffiti artists, as well as some up & coming new taggers.

We welcome your suggestions about new artists to feature on the premier Graffiti art website.

Graffitipix also welcomes and solicits your original photographs of graffiti art from around the world. Please feel free to leave a comment with contact information for us!

Presidential Politics?

I try to stay out of politics - well, actually that's not true. However I don't usually blog about it.

Recently though, I decided to voice my opinions (Obama for President!) on a new blog, The Presidential Zone.

Please stop by and voice YOUR opinion. You don't have to agree with me - it won't be the first time! But I'm a big believer in activism. Whatever your opinion, it matters. And being silent won't ever change anything.

I'm one of those who believes the United States has really declined - fiscally, morally, and in almost every other area. I also believe that Obama represents a legitimate chance to change, for the better.

Go ahead, visit The Presidential Zone and make your voice heard:
