About the book: Art is anywhere, anytime; it just depends on your viewpoint. Subway cars in the 1970s and 1980s became mobile murals in New York City. Not every artist can afford a canvas to create on; some people’s imagination exceeds their financial or physical means. Sometimes the canvas is bigger than ourselves. Look at Banksy or Michelangelo. Sometimes the canvas is really small. And free. Complimentary of the U.S. Post Service.Label 228 is a gathering of street art executed on priority mail labels (Label 228, in the U.S.P.S. parlance) and displayed in public spaces. It’s a remarkably popular method of exposure featured by graffiti artists worldwide. These labels are free, portable, and quick and easy to exhibit, offering artists the chance to spend more time creating their work than if they were to paint and write directly on walls, vehicles, and public objects. camden noir launched his Label 228 project by putting out a call to artists, asking them to send him their artwork or anything, for that matter, on priority mail labels. Within six months, he received over 500 labels from artists all over the world. At this point, he has over 1,500 labels from over 600 artists. This is a collection of the best of those labels, in a beautiful, full-color book. About the author: Upon
graduating from high school in 2002, camden noir joined the U.S. Army
and served on two overseas tours, spending time in both Afghanistan and
Iraq. After ending his service with the military in 2006, he moved to
Wilmington, North Carolina, where he now is a full-time student and
freelance interior designer.

City Hostel Is Finished!
47 Artists and counting
(repost) City Hostel Seattle: 47 artists and counting... by Jesse Belltown is breathing heavy under the weight of transformation. Former neighborhood icons like the Speakeasy are now half used parking lots. Geriatric brick apartment buildings are searching for an identity amongst the primary colored condos that have been thrown up in the recent boom years. Where is the neighborhood headed? Have we lost our way or is there still hope for the organic birth of culture from the heart of this neighborhood? City Hostel Seattle is ambitiously targeting a mid August opening. The historic Lorraine hotel will become Belltown’s nucleus of art and community. Over 47 artists are transforming what used to be a dilapidated low income housing development into a palate of raw expression. Each room will feature a unique vision; the walls transformed into an uncensored canvas. Known Seattle artists such as Joey Nix and Weirdo are there now, streaming paint in a building buzzing with construction workers. A hostel in the heart of Belltown in the plainest sense would be extraordinary. But, the scale and concentration of this artistic concept in one historic building could be the fuel that sets the neighborhood on fire. The man passionately behind the vision is Lee Kindell. He speaks with the confidence of a man in mid-flight; already having taken the leap. It is a stretch for him to remember the days he was working as a server at Teatro Zinzani, sketching ideas on paper in hopes of opening up his first hostel in Ballard. Scream two years into the future and Lee is only picking up speed with his eyes intently focused on the future and the challenges ahead.

City Hostel Seattle is Getting a Make Over
City Hostel Seattle is Getting A MakeOver...
By many local artists including myself! We all met up this evening with the curator Jen and owner Lee to check out the progress and choose the rooms we will be painting. It's going to be much like the Hotel Des Arts in San Francisco, where each artist (local to Seattle) will paint one room with their choice of design, color, etc.. My room is Suite #218 on the 2nd floor. It has plenty of room and a private bath. Here's some before pictures... The City Hostel in Belltown
I will post pix when I start on the room, they (the hard workers) are
going to clean up, primer the walls white and lay some carpet before I
go in and paint my designs....it should be in the next week or so when
I get started on it. I'm really happy to be part of this! This is going
to be so GREAT!

Handmade Graphics
Keep and eye out! I have a "Stenciling How To" with pictures! Book is being released Late Summer/Fall 2009! Handmade Graphicsby Anna Wray Get back to basics with Handmade Graphics, which will reinvigorate every graphic designer’s image- making process. Reawaken your dormant “art student,” step away from that computer, get your hands dirty, and start to play!From pencils to computers, from scissors to paper, from stencils to printers, a vast array of mark-making tools are investigated and manipulated, illustrated with examples and exercises that stretch the limits of conventional usability, reinvent traditional, hand-making methods, and break all the rules along the way. As well as the usual mark-making devices, a range of left-field methods and processes are also explored, employing household materials and found objects, and subverting the correct usage of digital and electronic devices. So, if you’re a graphic designer looking for inspiration beyond the usual off-the-peg solutions, this ideas-packed handbook offers a comprehensive “toolbox” of low-tech materials, high-tech equipment, old school tools, and subtly subverted methods and processes. After a good dose of hands-on mark-making, take those experiments back to your computer to create eye-catching and unique graphic solutions. About The Author Anna Wray studied design at Chelsea College of Art and Goldsmiths. She is the director of Lo-fi Creative and has built up over nine years experience designing for numerous clients ranging from bluechip companies to the music industry.
