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.

This is what I think...

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.

Two Many Arms

The Oscars

Feeling like I never agree with the winning selections at the Oscars, I made this illustration.

Tenielle Jewellery Website

I recently designed the new website for Tenielle Jewellery. Check it out here.

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.

Zombie Apocalypse Series

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.

Sims Vice 2009/2010

It's Christmas time again.

Merry Christmas, everyone. Or Happy Hanukkah... or Seasons Greetings for the rest.

Kessels Kramer New Tapestry Project

I was invited to participate in the new project by Kessels Kramer. The project is basically a recreation of the old Bayeux Tapestry, which depicted the major news events of 1066. The project is being called 'The New Tapestry', and it consists of illustrators from around the world, contributing black and white images depicting the major news events of today.

I was given 'Week 7' of 2009 to illustrate, (Feb. 9th - 14th). I went with the news article about the US Senate approving Obama's $838bn Economic Stimulus Plan right after a $1.5 trillion Bank Bail Out.

Enjoy.

Just a nonsense painting

Event Flyers

*Yes, I know I used the daft punk image at the bottom of the halloween flyer, but I was asked to use it. My idea for the skulls inside the helmets though... that's something...

H'ART ATTACK SHOW

The H'Art Attack Show opened this past Friday night and it was great! Thank you for everyone who showed up and supported local art. The talent was great, some really stunning photographs and some beautiful mixed media and paintings. The show runs all week long so if you're interested in swinging by please do so! It's at The Sleeping Giant Gallery, 789 Dundas St. W (near Bathurst) Toronto, ON.

Zombie Apocalypse Preview

A snippet of 1 of 3 new watercolour paintings by your favorite person named Darryl Graham. A step away from my modern oldies style but this is what I wanted to paint, ok?! Golly.
