When it comes to angling artwork, Derek DeYoung has emerged as a superstar. The Michigan native recognized his talent at an early age, and with support from his parents, made art his life goal. After earning a degree from Kendall College of Art and Design, he pursued his passion although struggled financially like most artists.
But thanks to the subject matter of his work, he's making giant waves in the fishing community. His collection of fish art includes original paintings, coffee mugs, boat and cooler wraps, clothing, drinking glasses, greeting cards, phone cases and more.
One of DeYoung's more popular items are phone cases, featuring his artwork as skins. He offers three lines of cases: the "Tough Case" (shockproof), the "Tough Extreme Case" (shockproof, water-resistant) and now the "Lifeproof Case" (shockproof, waterproof). While the cases are currently limited to iPhone and Samsung, Janell DeYoung tells us her husband may expand to the popular Motorola phones (we certainly hope so!). MSRP ranges from $20 to $45.
