If you live in NYC or any of the nation’s larger cities, you might have caught our poster series promoting the Green Label Artists. If you know the artists faces, you might have figured out the line-up a couple weeks ago. We saw some speculation out there on the web- for the record, even though he may bare a slight resemblance to graf big name Stash, the artist is question is, as you know, Troy Denning.

Check out some more street snaps of the posters below.

Designs By Humans is one of our favorite sites for finding up and coming designers and artists. Not only does it feature user submitted tee designs, but the users network with each other, so it’s a cool little community. If you’ve got what it takes to create a winning design, you could win up to $3,500 plus residuals. Not a bad little perk, plus their designs so far have all been stellar, so you’ll be in good company.

Green Label Art is live right now, but before the program launched you may have caught our Green Label Art teaser video on Youtube. We wanted to give a little tease before the program’s on shelves by giving each artist a nickname and graphic. The secret is out now though, of course.
