Schim Schimmel
Schim Schimmel is one of the most sought-after nature artists in the world. His pioneering art style, ‘environmental visionary surrealism,' is instantly recognizable and has been embraced by people all over the globe. His juxtaposition of wildlife and marine animals, planets and stars is unique and engaging, and reminds us of the interdependency of all living things. Schimmel has long been dedicated to environmental causes. A longtime supported of the Jane Goodall Institute, he created a limited edition series for the Institute's 30th anniversary, signed by Dr. Goodall, with all proceeds going to the foundation. He has also created a series of paintings for Siegfried and Roy, benefiting their efforts to preserve rare white lions and tigers.

Pin up Toons
Developed by highly regarded artist Rion Vernon, whose credits include film, animation, and interactive projects with Dreamworks, Nickelodeon and Paramount, Pin-Up Toons is a bold, provocative twist on a timeless American icon. As a genre, pin-up art has come full circle and is being discovered by new generations. More importantly, it's not just for men anymore. ‘Sexy' symbols have evolved and are now widely accepted by young women as a badge of self-assurance and bravado.
The renaissance of this unique art form is apparent in the surging demand for original works and the presence of pin-up art in both trend-driven and mainstream retailers. With Pin-Up Toons, the coyly sexy pin-ups of the 40's and 50's have given way to modern girls who aren't afraid to sport combat boots with a miniskirt and who face the world with a determined, assertive attitude.
Target audience: Teen girls and young women ages 15-25
Bittercup
Fairies and sprites are known for being not only mystical creatures, but also being very mischievous. Armed with the power to make wishes come true and a chip on her shoulder, this is never truer than in the case of Bittercup. Don't be fooled by the sweet, adorable appearance, this girl has attitude.
Just because she has wings, doesn't mean she's an angel.

Fun, Fresh, and Full of Goodness, the Daily Dose are just what you need to make it through the Daily G-"rind." Taking one of these a day will keep bad things away. Come and get your daily dose.
Maniac Munchkins
Raised in an isolated and unstable environment, this "band of brothers" never learned to play nice. Now unleashed on polite society, these little terrors are wreaking havoc on the establishment and gleefully butchering every social grace. Their well-intentioned attempts at flying right always seem to fall just slightly short. Naughty naughty, little maniacs!
Supadupa
Life can be so drab, dull and boring. Some days it's a struggle to even crawl out of bed to face the same old, same old. There are those surprising moments, though, when something exciting, something fun happens to you, when something new comes along. Every once in a while you hear that song that makes you want to dance every time, that cute boy finally looks your way and smiles, a new show comes out that makes you laugh because it's totally all about you, your parents finally get you that new pink phone you've been dreaming of (with unlimited texting of course - LOL!), you actually have a good hair day, and, oh yeah, you find that perfect outfit for your date with that cute new boy who smiled at you earlier. Sometimes there's that special moment that completely makes your entire day perfect, that makes going through the same boring routine all worthwhile, something that makes it, well, "Supadupa." See, it's not all that bad. Actually, life can be sweet. "Life can be Supadupa."
