Gig posters

Since moving to Edmonton I have noticed that there is a sever lack in creativity when looking at the local gig posters. So I have created 3 posters to present to a few of the local bars to begin drumming up so work on that front. Here are the three I did.


Moby Dick

I took a derivative design project I did in school(first year) and used the composition that I liked the most to create an illustration using my current style. Any thoughts?

Font in progress


So about two years ago I signed a contract with two of my classmates that I would design a font. So I have started the process of nailing down a idea for a font and have done a layout of what I have been thinking.

Toronto

Hey everyone I went to Toronto for The Applied Arts Magazine show for the winners in the Student Awards issue. It was really neat to see my work and the work of my classmates up and on display with the work of everyone else. Anne Watson also came for the show and we were introduced to a few people. All in all it was kinda weird to be there and not know anyone from the area.

before and after process

A piece done for my final portfolio school. A quick before and after look at it.

Clear Cutting


I have been thinking about the environment lately, and how we in Western North America are cutting down large groves of trees for market. Granted it is not as bad as in the Amazon, but it still something we should be aware of.

Long absence- Rearing to go

Hi Kim and Mom I am sure you are the only two that look at this post. So I thought I would give all a update. I went to South America for six weeks, and it was such a nice stress bouncer I can not tell you all enough about. I am back in the swing of things, working to feed myself while I produce my master pieces. I just finished a storyboarding course through Schoolism.com with Kris Pearn it was a great course. It was time consuming along with my ft and pt jobs, I am down to a ft job and my imagination. A piece of mine was accepted to the Applied Arts Magazine for their Student Awards Annual, this November issue. I am super pumped, there is a show in Toronto, November 17-18 and I will be attendace. The following piece is what was chosen for the magazine and following that is some projects I am working on.

Banff 08

Here is just a little fun picture of me at the Banff Springs. I was at a Story Workshop and one of the events was the springs I didn't have my suit with me so I rented a vintage suit. It had this great little skirt (where the strip is) so that when you stood up my jewels would not show. It was great I would like to own one, but they cost $80 bucks, way too much.
