After helping Raymond B. rummage and organize his archives, I thought I’d wander through my own and find something noteworthy to share. Easier said than done. Seems I’m not as organized has he is. Back in the day, I didn’t take care of my documentation as well as I do now (take note folks!), and now all I have is this image from a submission to juxtapoz.com. Oh well. Onward I go.

This image, coming in at a hefty 5′ x 6′ or so, was my prix d’or from mid-ACAD days. It was this painting that helped pave my way to a NY scholarship. Now it resides in some private collection, specifically in the hands of whomever owns the luxurious Teatro in Calgary. Funny how a simple homage to Rampage found it’s way into some wealthy man’s heart. Now that’s taste.

I wish I had a large large large studio to make large large large paintings. One day, I’m sure.

As previously mentioned in a past post, this image comes from the same series for Eye Weekly’s Renew Guide, back in January. This feller was found on the cover, and I really like how it turned out. Maybe it’s the nearly missing background, the undies on the floor, or the fact that the colouring is so simple and straight forward. Surprised that I haven’t posted this yet…

Goodbyes can be annoying when they last too long. Another last minute-ish illo for Eye Weekly, out in Toronto. Taylor Shute was once again a stand up guy for helping me with this one. The short synopsis that we were given for the column was rather abstract, and it felt like we were almost kicking a dead horse trying to find an image that would suit. it.  Funny how the final result ends up being so straightforward and simple sometimes…

A sampling from this month’s issue of Transworld Snowboarding Mag about the job market in the snowzone.  Yum.

Yup. It’s been a while. So to make up for it I want to begift you. More specifically, one of you. Or better even, the first of you. Playing off of the idea of the monthly contest day found on Raymond Biesingers The Daily Sentry (hands down one of the best illustrator blogs out there), I will mail out a copy of both falklands EPs, which I’ve created minor packaging for, to the first person to comment on this post. Easy as that! So you if you enjoy good local Edmonton rock and leaving comments on blogs, you can expect to see their two CD EPs, one of them fresh off the boat, in the mail!

Currently on the table keeping me busy: Some work for the Globe and Mail, due out tomorrow (you can see Genevieve’s today!). Once again, a few illustrations in the making for Euroman out in Denmark, and of course, working on chapter 2 of We Hate This Place Here; It’s Our Home.

Though this was not made with Valentines Day in mind, it can still hold its own on this day of heartache. Over at Latitude 53–Edmonton’s premiere artist run centre du jour–you can buy a membership as a gift for a loved one and they will receive this lovely image in limited edition print form. Better still, you, the buyer, will receive the other image / half of the series in limited edition print form as well. See below.
