a little art
Won’t make much money, and that just makes me love it more: START MOBILE is a new mobile wallpaper store featuring the work of emerging and underground mobile artists, from the START SOMA gallery, and powered by ipsh! This should generate some great buzz for the gallery and all involved, and if it gets these artists’ work on a whole bunch of people’s phones, can only be good. The site is live now, and the scope is awesome — this is from the press release:
Artists featured in the launch of START MOBILE span the globe (and beyond!), and include Dee Adams, Aiko, Alaagy, Lisa Alisa, Scatha G.

Side note, I’ve had an Ogi wallpaper on my mobile phone for a couple of months now — a shot I took of a little poketo print of his I own — and it’s great to see so many of his works up here.
