how to paint a burning bank
I went out with Robert McLendon and made another protest video. It's performance art. I'm getting that feeling in my heart again that we have all fallen asleep letting our sociopathic "leaders" continue their suicide mission of total global control funded by total debt slavery. So this is how my protest comes out, painting banks ablaze and engaging the public. If feels scary in the beginning because you fear the opinion or judgement of others, but the beautiful thing is once you're doing it you realize that everyone is feeling the same thing; we all feel it but we have to share the feeling so we realize again. The audacity of the crimes in our government and financial system, the scale and depth of the corruption, the covert activity and murderous foreign policy; it is outrageous!! Plant your seeds of outrage in the hearts of your friends and in strangers. Outrage with hope is a positive feeling, unlike outrage with desperation which is a state of mind to be afraid of. People, we foolishly believe that the elected and appointed officials holding the reins of politics and finance are actively working on and going to solve our problems (bitterly, problems they created to begin with). The sad truth is these out of control institutions are a greater and more immediate threat to 'homeland security' and the middle class American Dream than any terrorist, no matter who,why or what they believe. The breadth of the fear and trauma caused by this economic meltdown, the dislocation, suffering and despair that will spread across the country into every state and city and neighborhood and home and heart, that will be the beginning of a new darkness in America. That is terrifying. We have to keep pulling at the wheel to turn this juggernaut a new direction; it has a lot of momentum (read 'cronyism') keeping things on their current path of destruction. Folks we must begin to act up again. Make signs and brainstorm actions that engage others, make videos, shirts, flyers, and buttons, buy an ounce of silver. There are a million ways to act up but the most important is simply doing anything. Maybe just sharing this video. Whatever you do though, have fun!

Sacred Stitch Clothing Spring 2012 Collection
For Immediate Release:
April 25, 2012
Sacred Stitch Clothing Spring 2012 Collection:
Best known for their hand drawn graphics, New York based clothing brand Sacred Stitch advances their position in the fashion community with the drop of their highly anticipated 2012 Spring/Summer collection. This quickly maturing brand is marking the release of their first cut and sew products by offering three custom button downs crafted in traditional woven patterns with contrasting accents. As done in past seasons, the line consists of two themed capsules as well as their classic branded tees. This season's "Freak Show" and "Gangs of NY" capsules, in true Sacred Stitch fashion, throw tribute to the grittier elements of New York that have made it the place we know today. This season's five panel hat offering features a variety of five fabrics that range from classic to funkier patterns, all of which are sure to be Spring/Summer staples. In addition to their five panel hat offering, six original snapbacks have been designed around the colorways of this seasons tees and premium fleece pieces. All a part of the biggest offering thus far from this fast growing brand, the 2012 Spring/Summer collection is sure to make some noise.
In recognition of the brands biggest collection, the » sacredstitch.com website has been completely redesigned with a clean and fresh new look. Its lighter tones and simpler layout provide an optimized user experience for the thousands who visit the site.
The complete lookbook can be viewed at:

art reviews for Alex Schaefer
RECAP: Klughaus / Two of A Kind Exhibition
Video by: » http://www.ondareal.com
Klughaus Gallery and LRG proudly present 'Two Of A Kind', an exhibition of photographs by Tom Gould and Anna Delany, sponsored by Duggal.
Tom Gould and Anna Delany debut their latest work in a show which features photographs of the streets of New York shot exclusively on 35mm black and white film. Marking a difference between the millions of images of metropolitan New York, Gould and Delany's photographs document the frequently overlooked beauty of the neighborhoods and communities outside of mainstream media. Many images featured in their upcoming exhibition capture subtleties of everyday life from their adoptive neighborhood in Brooklyn's, Bedford Stuyvesant.
Individually following an instinctive pull towards the things that had influenced them early in life, Gould and Delany both found themselves immersed in the streets of New York, some 9,000 miles away from their homes in New Zealand.
Perpetually fascinated by the cultural movements birthed in New York, Gould let fate lead him to the city's streets. Suddenly surrounded by all the elements which growing up he had been so influenced by, Gould began documenting his environment with the insight of a local and the fresh perspective of an outsider.
He reflects, "Taking pictures on the street is like going to a casino, you never know who you're going to meet, what's going to happen, or what you are going to come home with. The fact that you can head out with a handful of empty rolls of film and return with images and memories that could last a lifetime, makes the gamble all worthwhile."
Delany shares a similar view. With an avid interest in people and humanity, the luck in her photography lies in the characters she encounters. "Some people I photograph I might know for a day, others I may end up knowing the rest of my life... It's all the people you meet along the way which make up your experience."

3D Street Painting In Thailand!
The last few months have been the busiest start to the street painting season thus far. It's been great...hoping it continues ;)
In March I traveled to Thailand with 5 other artists, via my new company We Talk Chalk, to create Thailand's first 3D street paintings and also give a few workshops to local artists. We were invited by a wonderful events company in Chiang Mai called Earth Wind and Fire headed up by the most amazing power couple, Yut and Aom. They provided us with the most incredible hospitality we could have ever asked for.
So, 4 of us teamed up to create a 15 x 67 foot painting that traveled from ground to wall and took 5 days to complete. Tony Cubuliquido, Lysa Ashly, my husband Remco Van Latum, and I had a great time painting this with pigments & binder and designed it so spectators could pose for pics on our sacred Thai Elephants. Here's a photo of us sitting atop the majestic creatures.
Ruben Poncia from the Netherlands, and Juandres Vera from Mexico rounded out our team and create two beautiful individual 3D paintings that drew crowds.

Art MIRAGE Legacy / Kingdom NYC
“Kingdom” (AKA KDM) is derived from The “Kingdom Crew”, a connected group of street artists who displayed their work in and around Long Island and NYC from the mid to late 1980′s.
The Kingdom Crew was started by the late graffiti artist “Mirage” and “Sketch One”. The crew had a simple mission and philosophy which was to develop a “kingdom” of individuals, who fostered a sense of creativity and displayed boundless efforts of self expression. Kingdoms mission today remains the same
Kingdom’s logo is from the iconic 80's NYC graffiti artist Mirage. Mirage's symbol was “A three toed pair of footprints” , which other writers referred to as "The Feet". Mirage's footprints created a new platform in NYC graffiti, and set the stage for, influenced and inspired various artists in the years to follow.
