Been a while since we've updated the ole' Stencil Archive. Don't worry, we have been hard at work on the back-end structures with an exciting, much needed upgrade on the image albums (aka the Archive) side of this site. We are getting closer to going live, muuuuuch closer......

We're still accepting contributions, and we're still snapping and collecting pics, but new uploads will get started once the new Drupal Archive albums get set up, worked out, tweaked, and made to look beautiful for your…

Rest In Paint - Russell Short - aka Klutch

Submitted by russell on

Klutch in 2004
Snapped during a Vinyl Killers 2 side event, this is probably the only photo of Klutch on the Stencil Archive site. He's doing what he loved to do: create shit and have a good time in the process.

Just hearing the sad news via Instagram, that artist and all-around lovable gruff, Klutch, has passed on to larger walls and bluer skies. 

10/08/61 to 06/08/23 03:47am. Rest in Power. It is with the greatest sadness, relief, and honor that I share with the world that our friend Klutch has passed. He joined the energy that surrounds us incredibly peacefully this morning. Thank you to every single person who…
