You will probably remember the [wrongful arrest of watercolor artist Julie Torres](https://hyperallergic.com/update-watercolor-graffiti-artist/) on a ridiculous charge of graffiti. We last reported on her [court appearance last month](https://hyperallergic.com/update-watercolor-graffiti-artist/), but now this great news. *Congratulations, Julie!*
