Disgruntled Clowns...



Alright, so here is my submission to Calgary's FFWD Magazine content series. I think it's pretty self explanatory.

FFWD 'No Exit' Cover...




here is the cover for the week of January 9th of Calgary's Fast Foward Weekly. A real challenging illustration. The play is acted-out in a closed room and then projected on screen for the audience. Design Editor Kris Tyman did an amazing job matching the text to the illustration -- pick up a copy when you get a chance.

It's Hip to be the...





Okay, so here is a little taste of the 5-page story that will published in issue #3 of Vehicle Magazine. I don't want to give it away, but it is a continuation (of sorts) from my 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' story (that that was published in issue #2). The magazine will be released in January. I adore the small insert panel of the FM and her goons -- I really wish I had made it more prominent in retrospect. Anyway. I'll post the full colour story in January (after the mag is released).

CQ 17...

So, yeah, I was awarded a 'Runner-up' mention for my contribution to Creative Quaterly 17. It's a start.

and here is my interview about the Comic Art Show in Edmonton:

So inarticulate. Whoopsy!

Chester Gould: Death Traps...



This is a poster I did for the 'Visions of Comics' art show at Happy Harbor Comics in Edmonton. I've always wanted to do an illustration taking heavily from Chester Gould's uber-imaginative style. The composition was heavily influenced by an illustration Jamie Hernandez did for the movie 'Divorce: Italian Style'. Regardless, this was a super fun piece.

Sandbox t-shirt designs...






Okay, as some cats out there know I share a studio space with Spencer Goldade at Calgary's Art Central. Last month we put together a t-shirt show. I'm currently compiling a list of colourful characters for a comic book project and used this show as a jumping off point for illustrating these crazy characters names. Dig in!

Absolute Underground...







okay, so I've obviously been kind of busy as I haven't posted anything in a while. Here is a progression from concept to finish of a piece I did for the cover of Vancouver-based magazine Absolute Underground. This was an extremely challenging project as I had to include 4 bands (and 15 band members) and a Halloween theme on the cover. I pretty happy with how this turned out. I'll make sure to add another update when the mag is released (there is also a full page interview with yours truly in the issue).

My website....

I totally forgot to post a link to my new website here. It has been up and running for a while now-- hop on by! I'm told you cats using Internet Explorer will not be able to enjoy the experience as much.

Who Wants to be a Millionaire? (the comic)...







This is a 5-page story I did for a local magazine named 'Vehicle'. The project was a lot of fun, and turned out to be my best comic book to date, I think. I would really like to hear what everyone thinks of the story. Enjoy!
