We kept our customers in mind by offering the opportunity to get illustrated! You can now have a portrait drawn and then have that artwork featured on products of your choice – http://shop.joujouart.com/custom-art/get-illustrated! Who does that? We do! That’s why we hope you will love what we have done and keep coming back!

The merchandise that you see in our store is only the tip of the iceberg! We have several other new products in the works and we are also in the process of developing new artwork! New products on the horizon include:  illustrated shoes, book bags, lunch boxes, skateboards and more!

One of our illustrations, The Beatnik, was featured in Vectips Weekly Vector Inspiration section! The post is from last year, but it’s still pretty awesome!  You can view the post here: http://vectips.com/inspiration/weekly-vector-inspiration-12/

You can now order custom skins at this site  or purchase select items from Society6!

Darren over @ The Little Chimp Society and Mail Me Art, has published pics from the exhibition. As mentioned in a previous post, JOUJOU submitted an illustrated envelope that was exhibited and available for sale. The piece will also join the works of other fabulous illustrators around the world in a book to be published soon!

JOUJOU submitted artwork to Mail Me Art, an international art exhibition. This was the second and last installment of the exhibit, which is one of the largest open calls for artwork. Mail Me Art, headed by Darren Di Lieto, challenged illustrators across the globe to send artwork via mail. The cool part about it is that the envelopes themselves were actually the artwork! Once all submissions were received by the deadline, Darren photographed and organized each piece and prepped them all for the June 30th exhibit. In addition to being on display for patrons to view, they can purchase the art as well. All the works of art will also appear in a book! Very exciting! Here is the exhibition information:

To ease the anxiety of election night I did, what I do best, draw! CNN debuted their new Star Wars’ inspired hologram feature and it made me think about the creator of the epic space saga, George Lucas…

For a limitied time only, I will be selling these really cool Barack Obama buttons. I will be adding new designs and you may even see a Michelle Obama button pop up! Anyway, this is a great way to support this incredible and fantastic candidate. If you dig on Obama, buy one and spread the word. We need a change in America so let’s rock that vote!  Fab candidate + cool art+ affordable price= A sweet deal!  BTW, I can make other buttons by request!
