Friends of Jolby: Miss Mal's Wired Jewelry

A good friend of ours has just launched her Etsy shop with hand-made jewelry under the name "Wired" that is "Industrial-inspired jewelry with a touch of rough." Check it out!

11 Days Left: Show Preview!

If you've been counting down with us you have probably seen a healthy sampling of the zine and show. Today's post is another generous dosing of show preview! We hope you'll help us spread the word the closer we get to the opening night. Lots left to do, but we can't wait to get these goods in your hands.

Click here for a preview of the show on our site (this is just a preview, much more work to come once the show opens)!

Also, we plan on selling the zines and prints online through Artful Goods the same weekend as the show.

14 Days Left: Printing With Keegan Meegan

Accompanying our first zine at the show will be 9 limited edition screen prints and a screen-printed card set hand-pulled by our awesome friend Keegan who makes up 1/2 of Keegan Meegan Press & Bindery. Above are pics from the time we spent in his studio as he slaved away on these delicious prints. If you need screen printing or letterpress done, he is the dude to contact. We are so excited for the show and it's rapidly approaching! Enjoy the sneak peaks!

New Subtext Show Opens Friday

Our pals Subtext Gallery in San Diego, CA have a new show opening in conjunction with the start on Comic-Con on Friday July 24th from 6pm - 10 pm called "Meanwhile in the Hall of Justice...". If you're in San Diego, make sure you check it out. Also, if you're at Comic-Con we would totally love one of these little guys if you see it. (Art above by Graham Smith)

Preview Coming Soon

Our amazing friend Ashley Forrette just finished taking pictures of our zine. They turned out great and we can't wait to share them with everyone. On that note we will be putting up a preview of the zine a couple days before the show. The Handsome devil above holding our zine is Ashley's Husband and an amazing dude Chris. Thanks

New Pattern

Finished up a giant poster that will be a gift with the first 10 zines at the show and the first 10 zines sold online. This pattern is a tiny section of the illustration on the poster but we thought it was pretty cool. Maybe will make wrapping paper out of it, who knows... Have a great weekend.

Sneak Peek

Here is a little sneak peek at one of the screen prints from the upcoming show. This print is part of a set of 6 (5x5) fun little illustrations. Enjoy!

It's Official: Jolby to Reunite in Portland

It's official. Josh Kenyon and his lovely wife are moving to Portland, Oregon. This will be the first time since 2006 that both halves of Jolby will live in the same city! To celebrate the ending of our constant video chatting and actually being able to talk in person now, here's Josh's big dumb face in all of its glory.
