Street art has been around since streets have existed, one way or another people want to attract the attention of other people, for whatever purpose, sometimes for political reasons, sometimes for commercial, and sometimes simply as a sense of self expression. A once common sight in London were brick paintings, mainly advertising, predominantly on the front or side of the shop itself. In a time before plastic hoardings and neon lights the best way to catch your eye was through sign writing, t... Read Full Story

Artomat.org are doing the unthinkable, or rather it would have been just a generation ago. The fact is the art market is brimming over with talent, more and more of us have chosen to follow a creative career path, wherever it may take us, be it poverty and obscurity or fame and fortune, and of course the vast majority in between. So society, and in turn the market, will always need new and novel ways of promoting and selling art to the masses.

Rock ‘n’ Roll will never die, or so it seems according to the latest winning tee at South African t-shirt community Springleap.com. This rather fetching punk/grunge style design was submitted by Suburbanhijinx and it’s his first of what should hopefully be many more fab illustrated tees. Using a variety of techniques including half-tone and grunge vectors, this photo montage piece definitely leaps out from the cotton, highly reminiscent of punk wear in Britain in the 1970...

We are subjects of the Queen who is legally nothing more than a token figurehead for a fractured democracy.

Sado Monarchism by Paul Baines
My latest work available as a digital print via Image Kind. I know I know, I said no more digital prints, but seeing as I'm still testing the water with screen prints I wanted to give people a chance to get a copy before the year is out. I'm planning to screen print this along with Black Christ and Reigning Men in early 2010. Hopefully Black Christ will be out for Xmas - we'll see.

Shepard Fairey for his Obey Giant line and images of Obama is probably one of, if not the most well known street artist in the world. His attention to detail, his clean imagery and on occasion iconic pieces have attracted attention from all quarters of the arts world. However there's definitely a (relatively) new kid on the block who might, and I mean might, just knock the crown from Fairey's head, and that has to be El Mac (The Mac).
El Mac is a Los Angeles born artist who's photo-realistic... Read Full Story
