Dope, yeah that's my shop Refresh PGH and Daily Bread! Also, we've been continuing the free art classes for youth in the city and are also working to start a Screen Printing Shop in the foundation name, Danny Devine Studio. Thanks again for keeping this going!

Nice! Yes they did a huge NSF production on the whole wall this past Summer/Fall but maybe at some point in the future they will redo it for Danny - either way it was great to see his names run there for so long. Used to love driving my daughter past and telling her that her name is on the wall (We named her after Danny lol). Back in August for Danny's Birthday party we did a fresh mural on the side of my shop. I'll attach a photo below. Thanks to everyone keeping this thread alive and going, my family and I appreciate it 100%. Also, check out this photo from the recent flooding that has a dog smoking weed moniker in the lower right hand corner haha. Thanks! Sean

Hey everyone, wanted to give an update on the foundation. We have an official website up and have added an art gallery: www.dannydevinestudio.com. Please take a look if you have some time! Also, making some moves and looking forward to establish a physical makerspace/print shop in the next few months where we will do art, design and technology education for underserved youth. Thanks for keeping Danny's name and art alive, we appreciate it! http://www.dannydevinestudio.com

Nice! Thanks so much for sharing. That view of the bridge was one of his favorite spots in the city. We're having a birthday party for Danny Saturday August 26th from 4-8PM if anyone local would like to come out! Thanks for keeping his memory and this thread alive!

Hey there, wanted to update everyone about the foundation we started in Danny's name. We are offering our first art class in July, focusing on his Ribbon Script / Laser Spaghetti Lettering style. Registration is still open for youth grades 6-12, with about half of the spots open. Thanks!

That would be dope! Feel free to text me if you ever have any questions or want to plan a trip or whatever. Sean 4127089129.

Agreed 100%. We have rotating art pieces on display at my shop in Pittsburgh. If you're local stop in and say whats up. It's Refresh PGH / Daily Bread at 5450 Penn Ave. Pittsburgh PA 15206. Thanks!

For sure, feels like forever but also just like yesterday.

June 3rd was 2 years since Danny's passing. His friends redid the Danny Devine mural at trace brewery last weekend. Heres some photos. Thanks to everyone keeping his artwork and memory alive!

Thanks for sharing! 🙏🔥

Thanks to everyone for the positive feedback, greatly appreciated! And that Mail Pouch barn is awesome! 🔥 Hope everyone has a great holiday season if you celebrate. IMG_9674.MOV

Thanks so much for sharing the photos! He loved all the Mail Pouch stuff so much. We are in the process of moving forward with his foundation - Danny Devine Studio. We have a website up and will be adding his artwork and posting all news and information about the foundation: www.DannyDevineStudio.com. Thanks again! Sean Devine

100%. His output was ridiculous. We look forward to showing more of his pieces in the near future! Not only did he have zines, prints and original peices stashed he also has 20+ flik books and maybe 40 black books from over the years. Going to be working on archiving all this with his friends. So glad to see new posts in this thread, thanks so much!!

Awesome! He loved this things. He has so many photos and pieces of art centered around them. He also was an official member of the Mail Pouch group. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks so much! Turnout was good, thanks! We did some tees, hats and prints that will be available online next week. Please let me know if you're interested and I would be happy to pass some gear along at cost. Thanks!

Hey everyone, thanks so much for your photos and comments, it means alot to my family and I! If anyone is local to Pittsburgh we are having a birthday celebration this Saturday August 27th from 4-8PM at my shop: 5450 penn Ave. Pittsburgh PA 15206. This is a totally free, family friendly event and all our welcome. We will have some of Danny's art on display and will have food, music and more. Let me know if you have any questions, thanks!

Great photos! So glad people got to check out the artshow will it was running. The show ended on Sunday and was taken down on Monday. We were able to archive the show and I wanted to share the initial video we put together. Thanks again for the support and for the interest in Danny's work. All love! (Not sure how to embed video, but the link is below) https://streamable.com/wajlzl

For sure, if people are interested I will keep posting his art in this thread.

Hey everyone just wanted to add some photos from the art show!

Yep Mikro and a few other OG JYK dudes did that right after he passed. I have some pics of other murals and tributes from around Pittsburgh that I can post sometime soon!

Thanks so much for sharing. Not surprised at all, he loved to make new friends and build with people. So glad you got to kick it with him and learn about Pittsburgh from him. We're going to continue to release clothes with his designs thru Daily Bread. If you have IG (@dannydevine4ever) hit me up on there and I will send out some gear, stickers and prints on the house. I just want to spread his art! Thanks again.

Thanks so much for that and I definitely will. Our shop is connected with a lot of the writers and artists in Pittsburgh so I def need to lock back in with 12oz. Used to scroll thru freight flix for days. Thanks again.

Hey everyone, my name is Sean Devine and Danny Devine @yinz n'at was my big brother. Back in the day I was a 12oz member and just wanted to be like my brother (6 years older than me). I wrote for a minute but wasnt even a small shadow of what Danny did and accomplished. It's super dope and super sad reading people's memories of him - very bittersweet. My family is very close and watching Danny's art and graffiti career was a great thing. Couldn't find someone nicer and more kind than Danny. From seeing him just bench and take flix, to he and his boys starting JYK and getting in tight with our boy Brick from Time Bomb (who is in the next room from me right now at my shop) to seeing him put on 100 art shows and make 1,000 acquantances and friends it was just straight inspiration. When we started our business Refresh PGH, a sneaker shop in Pittsburgh, he did all of our artwork. When we became a part of Daily Bread and eventually completely took over the company he did countless design and hands that we used for our core designs. When Danny did hand drawn artwork that needed to be vectored / imaged traced he turned to me. We always had each other's back and it was true brotherly love. He would always tell you I love you and give you a huge hug. He helped me run my shop and introduced me to a million people. He did the 'Smoke Mad Weed' canvas that is in the beginning of Mac Miller's 'Senior Skip Day' video. He did it all. I feel like he left pieces of himself with everyone over the years. He just loved so hard and always took the time to chop it up and talk - and actually cared about you. I was at the hospital when he passed. My sister and I gave his eulogy and I helped carry his casket with some of his closest friends. I miss him so much and I'm crying right now writing this. Thanks to everyone keeping his name, moniker, artwork and positivity alive. It's been hard. We have released a lot of his artwork and clothing designs - including the tees above in this thread. Thank you for the support and for caring. My mom and dad get sad all the time of course but I tell them a lot of people pass on and no one seems to care - with Danny, people care and still put his name up. And that means everything to us. I'm partial to his first Cres tags and pieces but Vick, VCR, Vcrock etc. are all up over the city. We had his boys do a mural on the side of our building recreating the Pittsburgh design he made. I've given out paint, mops, markers to anyone who says they'll keep his name up. I just wish I could hug Danny one more time. I haven't said this to anyone, even my wife, but as he was passing on in the hospital bed I told him that I would keep his name and artwork alive for the rest of my life and gave him one last hug. I meant it. He passed from organ failure. In my opinion it was a combination of his immunodeficiency, hard graf living, boozing over the years and the consistent exposure to spraypaint 25+ years. It just sucks man. Been hard to put it behind me because so much of my life is based on following in his footsteps and pretty much having my respect based on just having an ounce of the respect he had. I just miss him so much. We have been making products and prints of his artwork and we also worked with the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust to create a Retroactive art show in his honor. Shout out to all of his friends for helping it come together and honoring his name - all love. Here's the article for the art show running until June 12th: https://www.pghcitypaper.com/pittsburgh/extraordinary-exhibit-pays-tribute-to-pittsburgh-street-artist-danny-devine/Content?oid=21208223 Here is the instagram that we started and run for the Danny Devine Foundation: https://www.instagram.com/dannydevine4ever/ If anyone wants any of his art prints, has any questions or wants to know any info about the Danny Devine Foundation please feel free to hit me up on IG (@sdevine70), email doubled.contact@gmail.com or text me 4127089129. Sorry for the rambling post but I feel like I just had to get it all out and rep for my big bro. RIP Danny Devine aka Danny Yinzer aka Cres, VCR, Vick. Danny Devine Forever.
