Valentino Dixon, a prison artist renowned for paintings of golf courses, was set free Wednesday after being wrongfully convicted of a 1991 murder and imprisoned in New York, according to the Associated Press.
Per the report:
"While behind bars, Dixon rekindled his childhood passion for drawing, often spending 10 hours a day creating vivid colored pencil landscapes, including of golf courses, while imagining freedom. Articles in Golf Digest and elsewhere have drawn public attention to Dixon's case, as well as a documentary produced by Georgetown University students as part of a prison reform course last spring.
