inLimbo

Check out this album art I did for my friends' band inLimbo! They make music and it is pretty rad. Their CD release is on June 17th at Mansion House in St Catharines, so perhaps if you find yourself in the Niagara Region you should check em out.

You can also check out their music here: http://iaminlimbo.com




There is now words all over these images!

have a heart

Have a heART is an upcoming art show in support of SickKids Foundation. There are 13 artists involved and we're all donating a piece, with all proceeds going to SickKids. I'm also planning on doing a wall piece at the show so you should all come out and see it! It's at Dat Salon at 442-E Dufferin St (just north of Queen) on June 5th. It'll be a good party, for a good cause!

I also designed the above flyer for the show. You can check out the event on facebook here.

Spot Illustrations

These three spot illustrations were made for a travel magazine.


This spot was made to accompany an article about a town in Japan that has such an efficient recycling program (34 categories!) that they have zero waste.


This one is for an article about how the Swedish town which is home to the famous Ice Hotel is sinking, and has to be moved a few kilometers away.


This illustration is for an article on the Museum of Broken Relationships.

Idiocracy

This is a dvd cover for the movie Idiocracy.

Fishy Skies

This was an in class assignment, took an hour and a bit.

FISH IN THE SKY! This was originally part of an idea to go with my 'whales in the sky' painting. I didn't end up doing the series.

Solve Everything!

Hey dudes and ladies!

I realize I haven't updated in quite some time, but I assure you I have been making art! I have some pieces in the works for upcoming shows, not to mention being back at school getting me back into gear.

Here is my first assignment of the year, an ad for the mystical magical wonder pill, Solvestra!

Solvestra™, is (as its slogan suggests) a pill that will temporarily solve almost any problem you might have in your personal life.
Are your dog, wallet or keys missing? Perhaps all three? Take a Solvestra™ and instantly know where your missing junk is!
On a plane and the pilot is having a heart attack? Take a Solvestra™ and instantly know how to expertly fly an Airbus A380 for the next couple of hours!
Want to make awesome pancakes? Find a simple, delicious recipe online, make the pancakes and then go out somewhere for the rest of the day, take a Solvestra™, and do something awesome that you couldn’t do without Solvestra™!

Fashion!

It folds up to make a shopping bag with 4 sides, hence the weird spacing. It is supposed to be for Barney's. In the final, I cut out little bits of their clothing and I made some patterned tissue paper that goes behind. It's pretty cute.

Ghost Bees

This portrait was used for a mock show poster, but I took out all the information in favour of making it just a nice illustration. It's of the lovely twin folk duo, Ghost Bees. They make really delightful music and I definitely think you should take a listen. Here is their myspace: http://www.myspace.com/ghostbees

Leonard Cohen

Based on a review of his 'Live in London' CD which mentioned that Cohen has the ability to make a giant ampitheatre feel like an intimate experience. Image did get tweaked a bit before print.
