The Peek art show exhibition

the peek art show

I am going to be part of The Peek art show, co-organized by Urbanbloc and Mindzai. Expect lots of art, color, music, coolness, fantastical magic bunnies and technicolor unicorns. Ok, maybe not the last two, but nontheless, it’ll be awesome. Bring friends. Lots.

Or be all fancy and RSVP on Facebook.

Peace ‘n love, all that good stuff.

New work for Seattle Metropolitan

Worked on this fun article for Seattle Metropolitan some time ago. Apparently there’s so much caffeine in Seattle’s harbor that the fish have elevated caffeine levels. Don’t ask me how or why someone decided to test this on the bay fish…

Sure hope it looks like them. Personal work, reffed off a piece in a magazine, pity the photographer recently passed on, he had some great portraits of rock stars.

Color variant. Originally the background was meant to be blue. But it had too much of a indie comic feel. Or so I felt.

New work for Salon magazine

Some new work for Salon, which is a specialty magazine for the salons and stylists. It was a very fun job where the editors and art directors decided to go all retro-stylin’! I did a bunch of illustrations for their special business issue, so each piece covered a specific business tip like making the most of photo shoots, increasing counter sales and recruiting. I also did a 2 page comic spread covering ‘a day in the life’ of a Toronto stylist who was trailed by a business expert who gave him tips on improving his business day.

Spring postcards

spring postcard

Spring’s well and truely here, and so are my postcards! They should be delivered within the next few days to folks within the US. I will be doing Canadian mailings once I receive the cards myself. Fingers crossed that the card will be well received, and a few more new jobs from it wouldn’t hurt either :)

And – if you’ve got a card and don’t want it, please recycle it or give it to a friend or something. Postcards are quite wasteful in terms of paper, ink and carbon footprint.

Illustration for Pearson science zoo

zoo-lores

This was a delightful project for Pearson I did some time ago (and completely forgot to show it). It’s a zoo that illustrates different kinds of friction (sliding, static… I forget the rest). It was really fun to depict all the different animals and scenarios.

Illustrations for Alberta Egg Producers

eggs1

Did this recently for the Alberta Egg Producers. It’s going to be part of a display banner that they’ll be bringing around the province to promote eggs to kids for a healthy lifestyle. We were initially going to a do a large scene of kids doing all sorts of energetic things but unfortunately the time and budget didn’t allow for that. Still, I think we did pretty good with what we had! You can see the final design for the display put together by the art director here.

Artwork: Easter love from ninja bunnies

Yeah, um so… happy easter.

Remember, don’t piss off the Easter Bunny.
