My request for points: http://akinomicon.deviantart.com/?givepoints

They make super nice framed prints, mounted 1/2" panels, canvas prints and a variety of other products like puzzles, mugs, mousepads, clothing and more.

We have started to create a new placemaking painting on the wall where the Great Wall of Oakland takes place once a month during the Oakland Art Murmur. The first Friday of every month, once the sun goes down, they project video art onto this large 100ft x 100ft blank canvas. A few months ago a cool graffiti art mural was comissioned by the Estria Team.

This is a plan of what it will look like when finished.

http://www.DecorativeArtisans.org Check out their online magazine: http://www.artisphereonline.com

The organization provides resources and conventions on the art and craft of Decoration, this includes muralists, stencilers, faux finishers and decorative painters. They offer practical advice, techniques, classes and certification in all those areas, but the best part is the insurance plans they offer which are designed specifically for artists.
