The Orignaux Moose Shop

I am super thrilled to announce the opening of our own store front: Shop.OrignauxMoose.com!

This has been a long time coming, but I finally found the time to put it all together. Last night I put the final touches on everything, though I still have a few more pieces to list. The Etsy Shop will still be up and running, for now, and we will still continue to keep it up-to-date. No point shutting our selves off from such a popular site.

Hope you like! :)

Newness

New Portfolio Site
I hope this post finds you all well! This weekend I put the finishing touches on a complete overhaul of OrignauxMoose.com!

I have pushed the theme of the site to more of a portfolio. I’m interested in showing my work (in galleries, fairs, etc.) and I wanted to have something to direct people towards that displays my art, not just a blog that I haven’t been able to update since March. So, now I’ve got separate pages for the bigger projects (Ladies in Type, Stitched-Up Maps and Prints) and I’ve selected a handfull of my favorite paintings, drawings and misc pieces.

The blog is still here, for when I have the time to pick it back up again; but, I may need to reconsider what the blog is really about… Until then, feel free to check in to see new art and Shows & Events I’ll be attending (especially if you’re local Santa Cruz people)!

Love,
- Jules

Oh!

Nom Window
Whoa! What! Hi!

Well, in case you hadn’t noticed we took a bit of an unannounced hitas, here. There’s so much going on, and I’ve just got too much on my plate…

I hope to be back to bloggin’ soon, but in the meantime, the shop is very much still open and I will be updating the Flickr stream when I can.

Much love,
Jules

Site Update!
Oh, almost forgot! Been using any free time the past couple day to work on refreshing the design of the blog. New year, new design, plus the white was just getting to be a little too stark. Now we have some texture and color! Hope you like!

New banner on the Etsy Shop, too! :D

Looking Back, Looking Forward

Happy 2012 to you all! I can’t believe what a year 2011 was… let’s reminisce, shall we?

2011 in Review
January / February: Settled back into our slow beach town, Encinitas. My succulent garden really started to grow! Worked hard to pick up clients for nomBat. The glory of Craigslist finds! Pretty mellow, but that’s why we moved there.

2011 in Review
March / April: Got to know spots around town. My favorites were the Self Realization Fellowship meditation garden and Swami’s beach. Made a ton of promotional materials. Opened the blog back up. My cousin, Lane, got hitched! Got to go to a HUGE pet show and see some of our work in person.

2011 in Review
May / June: The Surfing Virgin of Guadalupe. Our great buddy, Diana, came for a visit! Nia had a baby girl! Worked on the Calligraphic States a lot.

2011 in Review
July / August: Fireworks on The Fourth, at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Jack had fun with the local Carlsbad Amtgard crew. Road trip: Encinitas to Whidbey Island, Washington! Morgan and Lizen got married in a beautiful beach ceremony! Spent some time in Santa Cruz on the way back down the coast and found an apartment super close to Jack’s family… aaaand we promptly wrapped things up in SoCal and moved up to Santa Cruz!

2011 in Review
September / October: Getting into the Santa Cruz groove. Begonia Festival and The Art & Wine Festival. We started The Santa Cruz Pop-Up Art Party! So great being so close to friends and family!

2011 in Review
November / December: Worked hard on Art Party shows and on my “Ladies in Type” series. Heidi and Brandon got married! My parents came for a visit for over the Thanksgiving holiday and got meet Jack’s family. Trips to Carmel, Monterey, San Francisco and Napa Valley. Gift sales and holiday festivals! Back to Atlanta for Christmas. Katie got engaged!

With all that we have coming up (The Art Party, new prints for the shop, nomBat projects, etc.) we could not be any more excited for what 2012 has in store for us! LOVE!

Friday!!

I am looking forward to a really productive weekend. And if I feel I deserve a treat at some point I may even go have a beer with our Moose buddies, Horse and Okapi.

Bonus points for anyone who can guess their names in the comments.
