“I can think of no other place I would rather be,” said Thornton. “Digital Art Zone is an awesome company that is perfectly poised for tremendous growth.”

Keone expressed her enthusiasm at the opportunity by saying, “I have worked at some great internet companies in my career. Digital Art Zone is unique because of the technology we provide, the customers we attract and the significant opportunities for growth. I’m looking forward to working with the great folks here.”

Dan Farr, the firm’s former CEO and co-founder will remain as Digital Art Zone’s chief strategy officer.
