Jojo and Sharon - Around The World!

Those Jetsetters Jojo and Sharon have been up to it again! Traveling around the world in search of fabulous art supplies and even more fabulous deals for all the Artists of Syracuse/CNY!

 

Their first stop was Tokyo, where they found themselves lost in translation while trying to buy Copic Markers. After many attempts at communication, they finally stumbled upon a hidden karaoke bar and celebrated their discovery by indulging in sake and sushi!

 

Next, they had to jet off to Paris, where they spent their days strolling through the streets and admiring the city's stunning architecture. But when they attempted to purchase paint from a local shop, they found themselves in a hilarious situation when Jojo accidentally spilled a bottle of Sennelier quinacridone magenta paint all over himself, causing a commotion in the store.

 

Milan was next on their list, where they found themselves in a heated argument with a local over which brand of watercolor paints was the purest. They eventually agreed to disagree (Clearly it’s MaimeriBlu!) and continued their adventure by enjoying the local cuisine and sipping on Aperol Spritzes.

 

In London, they stumbled upon a street artist selling his unique pieces and decided to purchase a few for their personal collections. They realized he was using Derwent Inktense Pencils! They also discovered a hidden speakeasy, where they indulged in some delicious gin cocktails and danced the night away. 

 

In Berlin, they found themselves in a quirky art gallery with a trio of eccentric owners who shared their love for absinthe. They spent the evening discussing their favorite artists and sipping on the infamous green drink. The green fairy must have enjoyed them, because when they woke up they realized she left them each a Graf von Faber-Castell fine pen!

 

In Barcelona they discovered an atelier selling fabulous handmade Escoda brushes. They spent hours browsing and chatting with the artists, and eventually found themselves in a bar with a view of the city. They raised their glasses of Cava to their incredible journey, feeling grateful for their love of art and each other's company.

 

Finally they stopped in Monaco. Prince Albert took them on his private yacht, and they told him all about Syracuse and the fabulous art & artist community there. They celebrated with champagne, and then His Serene Highness knighted them both! He proclaimed Commercial Art Supply to be the official purveyor of fine art supplies to the House of Grimaldi! They made it back to the Aéroport Nice Côte d'Azur just in time for their flight back to Syracuse!

 

And boy, are they tired!
