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…

Spring postcards

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

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

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.

New Yorker Eustace Tilley contest

Sorry for the lack of updates of late – I’ve been pretty sick with some kind of cold. On the bright side, I received a lovely email from the folks at the New Yorker informing me that my entry was selected for this year’s ‘Your Eustace’ contest. The contest was an open invitation to reintrepret the New Yorker’s mascot, which has quite the interesting history if you go read about it. Check out the other winners for this year’s contest on the New Yorker website.

New Work for Kayak magazine

Did some work for Kayak, Canada’s history magazine for children. I created the moose, Monty Moose, plus a couple of other spots which are in the magazine. Watch out for more Monty Moose!

New work for Las Vegas Weekly

final-lores

Happy New Year! What a way to end the year – this was done for the New Year’s edition of Las Vegas Weekly. It was a rush job that I got contacted for on Christmas (just like getting a present from Santa!).  The article is about people partyinh while sober, hence the whole deal with the clubbers holding bottled water. The article was in the print edition of the magazine and their online edition as well.
