Phantom

2011 Christmas gift for my uncle; his (now deceased) dog, Phantom.

Heritage House

2011 Christmas gift for my buddy's father-in-law; Heritage House (formerly the Canadian Bank of Commerce) from his home town of Pincher Creek, Alberta. He's been hounding me to "draw something real" for ages... so I did!

Hannah's Bike

2011 Christmas gift for my friend, Hannah. For fun she competes in marathons and triathlons all over Ontario, so I drew her bike! Hopefully it will find a happy home on a wall in her office.

Final Typography Project

I don't mean to toot my own horn too much, but I'm too stoked with my final project for Typography to not share it. Using the front page of an existing newspaper as a template, the objective was to create our own "above the fold" layout. I chose to be super-creative (and somewhat festive), going with a Die Hard theme - 'tis the season, after all. See if you can catch all the references contained within (some are more obvious than others)!


I'll help you out with one: the phone number spells out "323 F-U-C K-Y-O-U".
I thought it was appropriate, given the association. Hope ya digs!

4 x Sexy 2

Another 4x6" beauty. I'm already getting folks telling me, "there are sites where you can upload porn". For the record, as far as I'm concerned, this is art not porn. It just happens to be sexy. Enjoy!

4 x Sexy 1

I decided I don't draw enough sexy, potentially naked ladies, so I'm starting up another new blog. It will be called "4 x Sexy", as all the figures will be drawn on 4x6" card stock. Here is the first!

Isadora 4

The Isadora Project

Between 1999 and 2000, Canadian singer / songwriter Hawksley Workman published a book of letters to a fictional lover by the name of "Isadora". An avid fan since the release of his first album, "For Him and the Girls," I am now working to create over one hundred and fifty conceptualized representations of Isadora - [almost] completely free of reference; based on the songs and poems of Hawksley Workman. This is an idea I've had in the back of my mind for quite a while now; I decided it was time I got to work on it.

We all burn for [an] Isadora.
