Question any graffiti artists for hire?

So i love the work at 5th and Cecil B. Moore. I recently bought a house and would love to have one of these guys paint a interior wall or room.
Anyone ever heard of these being done?

Didn't Count Funk or someone else on this Blog hire a graffiti artist and then post about it? (I can't find the post or I would link to it).

I have some really sick photos of the graffiti around 5th and Cecil B. Moore. I'd put something in here but I am at work. Have you seen the wall a block or two West of 5th on Cecil B.? The street might be Randolph. It's amazing. Some of the coolest graffiti I have ever seen. I have 3 8x10's hanging on the wall in my basement of it. This made me think how rad it would be to have a wall in the basement done like that.

Go here on Google Maps, and click on Street view and look around. You should be able to see the wall I am talking about.
