Today on the blog, we’re featuring images collected over the last few weeks that document the work of Jacob Paa Joe Jr., a visiting artist at the University of Arkansas School of Art.

This week on the blog, we’re sharing some recent/not-so-recent Commercial Photo + Video work for the University of Arkansas School of Art. Every year, the University hosts a weeklong Summer Arts Workshop for High-school Students, grades 10-12. The workshop is free and open to any students that wish to apply. Participating students are treated to a host of experiences including museum visits, classes and art experiences taught by faculty, and other unique opportunities. (click to view more)

It is now November and the last time we updated the blog was after weeks and weeks of busyness and travel. It’s safe to say that aside from constant travel, things haven’t changed much. And for the most part, we’re not complaining. In fact recently, we had a first for the studio…live music. And that was so fun, we’ll be doing it again. But consistent photoshoots and video shoots followed by editing and managing those aforementioned shoots does create difficulties in keeping up with the normal, everyday tasks of managing and marketing a business. But today, we’re making time and space to share some images from the recent weeks. We sincerely hope that everyone is able to make some space to enjoy the cooler temperatures, the changing leaves, and life in general.

Happy Fall, Y’all.

Christmas is coming. But for the students at the University of Arkansas School of Art, Christmas will come BIGTIME in January 2023, when the Windgate Art + Design Studio officially opens its doors. For years, the University’s Art Program has been expanding and as a result, the University has found all sorts of nooks and crannies in which to house and educate their students.

The Windgate Art + Design Studio is anything but a nook or cranny. This brand new building is a full-on multi-use center for a majority of the art students to call home. We were tasked with creating a short video to highlight the brand new building.

How do you compile a decade’s worth of images and stories into a single blog post? If you ever figure it out, please let me know. In the meantime, this a best attempt at highlighting some of the ongoing clients, fun jobs and unique ingredients that have compiled the last 10 years of Novo Studio.

Enjoy.

Today on the blog: Some recent work for the University of Arkansas School of Art. It’s always inspiring to work among these up and coming art students and with the rapid growth of the program, the School of Art is busier than ever with new students, new faculty and in time, new facilities. It is truly an exciting time to be an art student at the University of Arkansas.

I recently had the opportunity to visit with and photograph artist Linda Lopez for an upcoming issue of Arkansas Made Magazine. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…I am always inspired when I have the opportunity to watch and learn from artists working in other mediums. And I don’t think this revelation is limited to just artists, either. So no matter what line of work you’re in, take this little blurb, run with it and go learn something about someone else’s line of work. Cheers.
