Thanksgiving Cards

In honour of our American friends' upcoming holiday, I thought I'd post some Thanksgiving greeting cards I illustrated on for the fine folks at Gartner Greetings:

Tickle Trunk

As a young boy, my favorite show was Mr. Dressup. This show fostered my desire to pursue creative activities, which eventually lead to a career in creative industries. I suspect this is true of many young Canadian creative-types.

With that in mind, I produced the piece posted below for the UPPERCASE Work/Life project. A book featuring Canadian Illustrators & Photographers.

I also thought it is an appropriate image for Illustration Friday’s theme, “pretend”.

New Illustrations

Hey there! I've got a few new illustrations in the old portfolio...check 'em out below!

More to come!

Happy Halloween!

Hey there!

Check out the Halloween card I created just for you!

Family Guy Exhibition

While I wasn't able to be there, by all accounts, the Family Guy CRAP show opening was a success. A big thanks to Chris Jackson for sending photos from the event. Be sure to check out the exhibition if you're in the LA area.




This guy liked my piece so much, he pressed his face against it!

Halloween Cards!

Hi everyone!

Below are three pics of cards I created for Gartner Greetings!

Happy Halloween!

DON'T BUY THIS BOOK

The book pictured above, Colourful Illustrations 93°C, is nothing but ripped off content from The Little Chimp Society website. It showcases the work of illustrators, none of whom gave permission for the publisher to do so. In a nutshell, their work was stolen then re-sold for profit.

Read about it at LCS, Apefluff and Luc Latulippe's website.

Please, spread the word!

Little Critters

For everyone in the Calgary area, check the out the Little Critters show at the UPPERCASE Gallery, featuring affordable artwork by Canadian illustrators!

If you collect prints of dogs pooping out diamonds, you'll not want to pass this up.

Happy Easter from Nova Scotia

The image below is a knee-jerk reaction to this article from the CBC: New holiday tradition in N.S.: drinking in bars on Good Friday.

Happy Easter everyone!
