Woodburned Skateboard

Always love trying new ways of mark making. I remember spending time with my grandfather as a kid using his woodburning kit to make designs on Artist Conks (Shelf mushrooms that grow on tree wood) and I haven't drawn with burning since (aside from the video I posted just recently). As I worked on this I found easier, faster and more detailed ways to work with the medium. Great fun on this piece. Enjoy!

CBC Sports "Beard Yourself"


Some recent work with CBC Sports via Empirical, the JUST LAUNCHED "BEARD YOURSELF" Application over here... I developed the "Beard Yourself" logo and all the beards and thumbnails. COOL EH?! Go over to the CBC Sports Fan page and... check out the app and go beard yourself.

Quick painting

I really like this exploration of controlled linework and loose, random watercolour. I did it first at the comic con for a painting for a kid (see last post), and thought it might be a neat direction to explore. Thought I'd share.

Comic Con Comission drawings

Cap. America, Thor and Ironman

Jack Skellington and Alladin's Genie

Alice down the Rabbit hole.

The Little Mermaid

... and some lucky kid got this one for a deal and a half. He was a really nice kid so I wanted to do something extra nice since I had materials to do it.

Toronto Wizard World Comic Con


A big thank you to everyone who came to see me at the comic con this weekend. Thanks for spending some time with me and for some of you thank you for spending money on me. :) You guys keep me in business of creating. I hope see many of you at the upcoming FanExpo in August. I'll have new prints ready and, as always, doing commissions for anyone who wants one.

Thanks again guys, I had fun.

Serifs are like Sideburns


I had a nap and dreamt that I was talking to someone about fonts, and I was saying how Serif fonts are kind of like sideburns, they don't seem to be trendy anymore. I woke up and made this.

Various Logos and Type Treatments


* TD Canada Trust Logos shown here were unused, but I liked them enough to show. The final version was okay, just very simple, not worth showing I don't think.
