(PRWEB) November 5, 2004 -- Philadelphia-based pioneers of hand-painted fashions Miskeen Originals today announced that they added an artistic touch to the election results for MTVs Choose or Lose voter mobilization campaign.

The MTV Choose or Lose Campaign wanted a unique way to convey election results, and "Miskeen really took it to the next level," an MTV spokesperson said, describing the map as "incredibly creative and inspired."

Over the past few months, Miskeen has been on an expansion path. The company has moved to a new 30,000 sq. foot state of the art design facility, broadened its line to include womens fashions, and has increased its staff of artists. The creative energy coming out of our facility is amazing", says Yaniv Zaken, founder and president of Miskeen. Each day, Im amazed by the range of designs being painted. Im fortunate to be able to provide the platform that enables our artists to express themselves and reach a broader audience".
The demand for Miskeen Originals has been on the rise, with customers collecting and treating the clothes as works of art. This trend has been embraced by celebrities such as Fat Joe, Fabolous, NAS, Alicia Keys, Lil John, Lebron James, and Terrell Owens. Were constantly inundated with requests for custom hand-painted clothing," says Barry Adika, Miskeens sales and marketing manager. As a company weve chosen to be selective and support the entertainers whose work we appreciate. We began the elections by doing some custom designs for P.
