On December 13th, CTV Morning featured DNA 11 on the show. Check out the segment with host Lianne Lang and our PR Manager Suzy Kendrick. Lianne was great sport trying out a DNA collection kit and even giving us her best smooch for a kiss portrait. It’s not too late to get your DNA 11 gift kit and give someone special a truly unique piece of art this holiday season!
Wow what a weekend.
Last week DNA 11 was in Los Angeles to participate in the 5th Annual Access Hollywood “Stuff You Must…” Lounge where our unique DNA art was a big hit with the Golden Globes celebrities.
“This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen!”
Thank you very much Jennifer Love Hewitt!
Also dropping by the DNA 11 booth to grab their personalized art were cast and crew members from Dexter, True Blood, Mad Men and Entourage as well as stars William Shatner and one of my personal favorites, Neil Patrick Harris! NPH loves DNA 11!
Check out the photo gallery below for all the weekend’s pics.
To wrap up the weekend, DNA 11 co-founder Adrian Salamunovic was on Access Hollywood to present host Billy Bush with his very own DNA Portrait. We’ll post a clip when it becomes available.
Of course the main reason DNA 11 went down to L.A., other than to meet NPH, was to promote our DNA 11 for Charity Program. Stay tuned for some exciting announcements in the regard soon.

If you read the Wall Street Journal you can check out your favorite DNA Art company on the cover of the Personal Journal section today.
DNA 11 appears as part of a larger story about the rise of retailers who specialize in customization, which WSJ dubs “me-tailers”.
We’re honored to be associated with so many cool and exciting brands in the article and believe passionately that customization and personalization are what customers want in a world where things are increasingly mass-produced.
At DNA 11 we take great pride in providing our customers with the ability to express themselves and apply a little bit of their own personality to their walls.
Some think it’s narcissistic, but we like to think of it as hyper-personalization. While some customers are buying DNA Portraits or Fingerprint Portraits of themselves, many are choosing to celebrate their kids, their pets or even a lost loved one and we think that’s awesome.
Thanks to Wendy Bounds and the Wall Street Journal for a great article, here’s the link: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703296604576005402633221250.html

After three beautiful months in sunny Los Angeles the time has arrived to “pop down” our temporary pop-up gallery. By all measures it was a huge success. Hundreds of guided tours, piles of media and a great wrap up party co-hosted by our friends of 944 Magazine ensured we went out with a bang! We made lots of fantastic friends in Los Angeles and we’ll be back soon.
Here are some of the pictures from the DNA 11 / 944 Magazine event. Many thanks to GreenSUV for providing the transportation, HOPE Wines for supplying the wine, Poixen (for the delicious pisco sours) Carly Harill from 944 for helping to coordinate everything and of course our PR firm RF-PR.
We’re proud of what we’ve created and it shows. More importantly our valued clients have shared their feedback with us since we’ve launched. Many thanks to our clients. Can you feel the love?
Here are just a few of the e-mails and feedback we’ve received over the years. Please feel free to add your own comments to this posting.
“THANK YOU! I can’t thank you enough for the AMAZING portrait now hanging in my office!  It’s beautiful and every person that walks in here comments on it.”
