Shepard Fairey - - CRIMINAL.Shepard Fairey, the artist responsible for the Obama "Hope" poster that contributed so importantly to Obama achieving the presidency of the United States four years ago, plead guilty today to criminal contempt in charges that came from his manipulating evidence in a lawsuit brought against him for using an AP photograph as a reference for the "Hope" poster. Shepard Fairey was sentenced to two years of probation and 300 hours of community service. Shepard Fairey has been a special friend to deviantART. He contributed another one of his famous posters for marriage equality to a contest we held, "Love Unites," that encouraged deviants to remix his poster. He very generously gave us a layered file with all of the poster's elements. The results were spectacul

Announcing the deviantART Creative GrantsAnnouncing the deviantART Creative GrantsAt deviantART, we have spent the past 11 years building a place where artists can share and discuss their work and get inspired by the work of their contemporaries. A noble cause, for certain, but we would like to be so much more to our beloved community of brilliant creatives. Starting today, deviantART will also be a means of inspiration in an entirely new way with financial support for art.On 3 month cycles, deviantART will accept applications from artists seeking to fund art-related projects. A panel called the Creative Grants Board will pick those projects that they believe will benefit particularly from a Grant and give those artists the support they need to make it happen. The lucky few who are chosen to receive Grants will also be given a beautiful accolade on their deviantART Profile Page to celebrate their succes

Chef Nozawa RetiresCredit: Michael Kovac ( http://www.kovac.net/ ) My favorite Sushi Chef and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Nozawa are retiring as of yesterday. I was able to deliver this letter to them last night, along with a bottle of champagne. And I was honored to deliver a last toast, and incredibly beyond belief honored to eat the last piece of sushi served by the restaurant. A new restaurant for the sushi chain called "Sugar Fish" (a partnership between Nozawa, and his sun plus another partner) will replace the original Nozawa which has operated from Ventura Blvd in Studio City for the past 25 years. Sugar Fish at this location is scheduled to open in May. The New York Times covered the closing of Nozawa, known as "The Sushi Nazi" in the following story; "Pu
