JaCaRou Puzzles: Collaborating with Licensed Artists
At JaCaRou Puzzles, we pride ourselves on working with talented artists to provide our customers with unique, high-quality licensed images. These works bring artistic diversity and a personal touch to each puzzle we create. However, despite the beauty of these images, we have noticed that they tend to be less popular with our customers. As a result, we often face unsold inventory, which is challenging for a small business like ours to sustain. Therefore, we carefully assess each new licensed creation to ensure it aligns with market preferences.
Delfy: Artificial Intelligence in the Service of Creation
For the Delfy line, we decided to adopt an innovative approach by partially integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into our image creation process. However, using AI doesn’t mean the work stops there. Our expertise in digital art allows us to refine these initial creations and bring them to an optimal level of quality, perfectly suited for puzzles. The final result is an image that is both visually appealing and enjoyable to assemble.
Many hours of meticulous work are added before presenting a final image. It’s important to note that there is always a human touch behind every creation. Artificial intelligence is a helpful tool, but the artistic vision and final decisions are made by humans.
After conducting numerous unsuccessful searches through various image agencies, we realized it was becoming difficult to find visuals that matched our themes precisely. In response to this challenge, we chose to generate our own images with the help of AI and rigorous digital work, allowing us to offer an even wider range of styles and designs to our customers.
We’ve also noticed that many licensed artworks signed by artists already make use of AI and digital art. Since we have the necessary in-house skills to create these images ourselves, it became clear that we could produce our own visuals more efficiently, avoiding long and costly searches.
Diamond Paintings: Merging Innovation with Traditional Art
In addition to puzzles, we’ve applied the same creative process for some of our diamond painting images. With the help of AI, we can generate unique designs that enrich our offerings and diversify the available styles for our customers.
While we continue to collaborate with artists for licensed images, we often observe that, despite their great beauty, these artworks are sometimes less popular with the public. This can result in surplus unsold products, which poses a financial challenge for a small business like ours. That’s why we aim to balance the use of AI and artist collaborations to maximize the efficiency of our creations and better meet our customers’ expectations.
