Market Mall Carnimal!

Really fun project for Market Mall's Spring Carnimal! They commissioned a set of 6 big carnival animal topiaries decorated with flowers for their spring campaign, and had me do an illustration of each in the act! Above is Mighty Magnus & Mini Maddox, strongmen!

The Flying Fellinis, acrobats

The Incredible Icicle Bros, jugglers

Boogie & Woogie, hoop dancers

Bongo the Magnificent, magician

Fearless Francesca, high diver

My Calgary pals sent me some pictures from around town! :) :)

Some sketches that didn't get used:

Purity Ring - Shrines

Purity Ring album review illustration for Beatroute Magazine! I listened to their new album, Shrines, about 3412 times while working on the illustration and it's so so good. Buy it. Or go see them live. Or both.

songbirds!

Oh hello, neglected blog! It's been a pretty crazy few months, including a relocation to the fine city of Vancouver. Hello, Vancouver!

Here are some songbirds for Organic Gardening! One of the most fun jobs I've done all year, I will never ever tire of drawing cute lil critters. If you need cute critters, CALL ME.

The Pauses Interact-O-Vision

Poster for good pals, the Pauses! The exploding organ shown is part of their super cool interactive show, where the audience gets to create and manipulate the visuals and effects by playing around on the synthesizer keyboard!

Queen St. East Map

I really enjoy illustrating maps and had a great time doing this one of Queen Street East in Toronto for the National Post this past weekend! It was a pretty quick turnaround, about a day and a half start to finish, but I also enjoy a 'lil high pressure rush job every now and then too. Thanks Becky!
