I am passionate about sustainability, so I decided to create an infographic on an important matter: The sustainability of the seafood in our oceans.

Here is some resource material:

I recently completed a web site for a local artisan and workshop store called “Elephant Shoes”. I actually started off by selling some of my pins and silk screened goods there as a vendor and soon discovered that Cheryl needed a web site and I was excited about helping her out. Elephant Shoes is a great concept because it encourages the community to get together and learn as well as promote the locat talent. I predict good things to happen for this store (and hope the web site helps that along too).

Good.is had a competition for their Project: Doodle “Solitude in the City”.

I drew a quick doodle of where I find solitude in an urban environment and ended up as one of the runners up! The people at GOOD do a great job at bringing awareness to important issues and community to the world.

Here is an overview of some of the things I make showcasing my design work on pins, t-shirts, prints etc. Sometimes when I have free time I sell my stuff under the company name accessureyes

I made a lamp cover from old magazine covers that were lying around my place. I used the template found on Instructables website. It is more beautiful if you can find a translucent thick material to use, but I think the colourful glow that illuminates from behind the paper is quite interesting and like a work of art.

This collage was made from the sample paper from a Domtar Earthchoice sample booklet. It is in memory of my fighter fish Kenshiro who was a fighter to the very end. Mottainai.

This is a holiday wreath I made by upcycling holiday mail advertising. I used the ads as leaves of a pointsetta, and used beads from a broken neckace as the center, and finished it off with a nice light spray of matte white spray paint.

I especially love the places where you can still see the text underneath the paint.  This pretty piece of paper art was given as a gift for the holidays.

Here is the 2009 Holiday eCard that I created for Dimentians (the company I work for). This animation from concept to finish was completed in a mere three days. The idea was to incorporate my recent upcycling collage inspirations and use the design magazines that I had on my desk at work from HOW, Veer & Wired. ENJOY!

I make cookies every year during the holidays, but this years season for celebrating coincided with my sisters purchase of her first home. Her holidays will be spent renovating her house, so I thought I would make her renovation / winter ginger cookies. I was told the wrench looks a bit like a dog biscuit.

This is the first upcycle collage for my Japanese Obake (monster) series. I will create different collages depicting different Obake derived from Japanese folklore.

This is collage is of Rokurokubi, which are ordinary people by day, but transform into long necked creatures at night, often frightening people and creating terror.

This collage was created out of the HOW magazine paper product advertising inserts.
