About The Collection
Over the course of 15 years, Eric “Superman” Sturgess, a dedicated art collector, has amassed a remarkable collection of over 500 intricate and unique prison paños. These pieces of art are created by inmate artists who are currently serving time within the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Eric maintains regular communication with these artists and purchases their paños at a mutually agreed-upon price, compensating by depositing funds into their trust accounts. The inmates then send the paños to Eric by mail, directly from prison.

Giving Back
Over the past several months, I have given tens of thousands of dollars to inmates in the CDCR and their family members for their artistic creations. The inmates choose how I pay them; some like money deposited into their trust account. Others request I give money directly to their family members via Cash App, Zelle, or PayPal. Some want me to buy them a quarterly or special package, and they send me a list of the items they need.
I have also written letters of support for resentencing and parole board hearings for some of my friends currently incarcerated in the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. I do everything I can to help get them released, and letters of support are a valuable tool in that process.
God bless you,
Eric “Superman” Sturgess
