    Happiness Is Expensive- Grey & Pink Limited Edition Hand-Embellished 6-Color Screen Prints on 300gsm Fabrino Rosapina Paper by Prefab77 Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Happiness is Expensive is part of a theme we are developing, keeping our hard, fast-edged style and mixing with portraiture. We want to explore the iconography and the power of the female form in traditional art, music, and fashion. Throughout the ages, portraits are used to reflect the subject but also the time period that the subject inhabits, with secret messages, religious affiliations, and iconography woven into the piece. We want to take this forward and use the main figurative element to reflect these messages into a powerful piece. We want to bridge the gap between street art and traditional art by using a mixture of Acrylic, Spraypaint, stencils, wheat pastes and various screen print inks in our work layering these into luxurious prints and originals." - Prefab77 "Happiness Is Expensive - Grey & Pink" is a captivating limited edition screen print by Prefab77, a renowned artist in graffiti street art and modern pop art. This hand-embellished artwork, rendered on 300gsm Fabriano Rosapina paper, is a testament to Prefab77's commitment to melding the raw energy of street art with the finesse of traditional portraiture. The piece showcases a complex interplay of six-color screen prints, each layer meticulously applied to construct a composite rich in texture and depth. Prefab77's intention to reflect the iconography and power of the female form is realized through the central figure. This portrayal channels the essence of femininity as observed in historical art, music, and fashion. The artwork serves as a contemporary canvas where the past and present converge, with the female subject embodying not just her narrative but also the zeitgeist of our era. Through "Happiness Is Expensive - Grey & Pink," Prefab77 delves into the tradition of portraiture, reimagining it with a modern twist. The work is interwoven with subtle motifs and symbols that echo religious and societal affiliations, similar to the hidden messages found in classic art. Yet, the artist propels these elements into the present, infusing the piece with the techniques of street art such as acrylics, spray paint, stencils, and wheat paste. This particular artwork explores luxury within prints and original creations, blurring the lines between accessible street art and the exclusivity of fine art. The limited edition nature of "Happiness Is Expensive - Grey & Pink," marked by the artist's hand, adds to its desirability and value, making it a cherished piece for collectors and enthusiasts of street pop art and graffiti artwork.

Gold Digital Scale: A Synthesis of Art, Precision, and Philosophy Baller's Gold Digital Scale is more than a measuring device; it's a metaphor for balance in pursuing a life well-lived. The precise nature of a scale—a tool for measurement—juxtaposes with the inherent value and fluctuation of gold, creating a duality that speaks to the balance of practicality and luxury.

Money & Cash

Money & Cash has been a popular topic in graffiti street art for many years. It is often used as a symbol of power, wealth, and corruption in society. Graffiti artists may use images of currency, such as dollar bills or coins, to comment on the influence of money in politics, economics, and culture. One common theme in money-related graffiti is the concept of greed. Artists may use images of fat cats or pigs with money bags to criticize those who accumulate wealth at the expense of others. Graffiti artists may also use images of dollar bills with slogans like "Money Talks" or "Cash Rules Everything" to comment on the ways in which money influences people's behavior and values. In addition to critiquing the negative aspects of money, graffiti artists may also use money-related imagery to celebrate the positive aspects of wealth and success. For example, they may create images of successful entrepreneurs or athletes who have made a significant impact on their communities. Overall, money as a topic in graffiti street art can be used to reflect on the complex and multifaceted ways in which money shapes our world. The cash sign ($) is a popular symbol used in graffiti, street art, and pop art to convey various messages related to money, power, and status. In graffiti, the cash sign is often used as a tag or signature by street artists to mark their work and gain recognition in the community. It may also be used to convey messages about wealth and consumer culture, as well as social and economic inequality. In pop art, the cash sign is frequently used as a motif to comment on the commercialization of art and society. Artists may incorporate the symbol into their work to explore themes of greed, materialism, and the commodification of culture. The use of the cash sign in graffiti, street art, and pop art reflects a complex relationship between money, power, and artistic expression in contemporary culture. ash plays a significant role in both Graffiti Art and Pop Art, although in different ways. Graffiti Art is often associated with street culture and urban environments, and it emerged as a form of rebellion against societal norms and authority. In its early days, Graffiti Art was primarily created by young people who had limited financial means and used cheap spray cans and markers to create their art. However, as Graffiti Art gained popularity and recognition, some artists began to monetize their work through commissioned pieces, selling prints, or even opening their galleries. While the commercialization of Graffiti Art has led to some controversy within the art community, it has also allowed some artists to earn a living from their work. Some of the most famous Graffiti Artists, such as Banksy and Shepard Fairey, have achieved mainstream success, with their works selling for millions of dollars. In contrast, Pop Art emerged in the 1950s and 1960s as a response to consumer culture and the increasing commercialization of art. Pop Artists such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Claes Oldenburg often incorporated images of everyday consumer objects and mass-produced items into their artwork, highlighting the pervasive influence of consumer culture on American society. The irony of Pop Art is that while it critiques consumer culture, it also celebrates it, and many Pop Artists became successful commercial artists themselves. Warhol, for example, famously declared that "Making money is art, and working is art, and good business is the best art." His prints and other works continue to sell for high prices today. While Graffiti Art emerged as a form of rebellion against authority, it has also become a commercialized art form that allows some artists to earn a living. In contrast, Pop Art critiques consumer culture while celebrating it, and many Pop Artists have themselves become successful commercial artists.
