ART-BY-JCON is a company founded by artist, Javon Conaway. With a mission to fully develop the brand into a multi-faceted retailer and conceptual platform, Javon drives the story of the brand through his vivid and emotionally driven paintings. Javon has found a way to marry many of his passions into a single entity with the birth of ARTBYJCON, leveraging art, fashion, collaborative projects, emerging artists/organizations, cuisine, and events. The name itself ART-by-JCON, stands in a figurative way, reflecting that all elements associated with and created by the company are all forms of ART, chosen, developed, approved, and moved through the mind of Javon Conaway.
A Connecticut native raised to never give up on a dream, Conaway now resides in New York City. He's taken a magnitude of experiences and has told visual stories about them using art in its broad and multi-faceted platform. Beginning at a young age practicing with more landscapes and realism, the art has transformed into visual stories that speak to the intricacies of humanity utilizing; daring, provocative, and thought-provoking imagery & wording. Conaway later found art to be a portal to emotional release and a way to impact the world. He specializes in acrylics & spray paint on canvas, and prides himself on being unique and eccentric. His work takes innovative inspirations from music, politics, shattered romance, a sense of community, and a world in despair to ask the question: how can the world be unified, how can we get people to think, feel, and hope?
Conaway understands the complexities of bringing worlds together, believing there is nothing more powerful than being able to express that in many artistic ways.
