Resistance through storytelling

I recently had the opportunity to illustrate a really great feature for Shameless Magazine in Toronto. I did 2 for them, this is the second illustration. I cut it in half so that it would be easier to see, but the actual illo is one piece that runs across the tops of 2 pages. It's not a format I've ever worked with before, but it was a nice change and a lot of fun. I enjoyed the challenge of working with such a long & skinny space.

Web page update

I just updated my website. I re-worked the portfolio section and added a bunch of images to it as well as to the sketchbook.

My studio

I'm currently working on a couple of pieces, but I'm not ready to post those. In the mean time, I just cleaned my studio so I thought I'd take a few pictures of the space I use to do my work.

I used to have this whole room to myself. Back then I had my drawing table, a desk for my computer and an other desk just for working at. However, my fiancé (his name is Dario) recently moved in with me so I had to lose a couple desks and half of the room. But I still have more than enough space - although I wish I didn't have to use my drawing table as a desk. It was a good trade off though. Dario is really creative and it's nice to have someone to bounce ideas off. So far the arrangement is working out very well.

Here's a closer look at the inspiration board above my drawing table.

I keep all of my art supplies in the cabinet against the far wall.

And there's Dario on his side of the room. I think he's pretending to work.

That's all. I hope you enjoyed the tour!

I was offered an ad in a publication in exchange for doing an illustration. Here's the ad - I just finished it so I thought I'd post it.

This is the finished cover for Active Voice. The title of the publication will go at the top where I painted it a bit softer.
