TIME Magazine : The Best of Asia


I came back from my Beautiful British Columbia vacation to find a copy of TIME magazine with my illustration on page 20! May Wong, the art director I worked with, was so wonderful.

The piece was for a write up about a spa that uses ingredients found in a Bloody Mary in their treatments. The half page illustration has the feel of the old pin-up girl in a martini theme, but with a more relaxing, spa type spin.

Fluevog Creative Finalist


My shoe ad was selected as a finalist in the Fluevog Creative competition! My sister, Kristy, told me it kind of looks like Dorothy clicking her red heels and coming home.

Poster Art : three


I've wrapped up the final art and design for Shawn Clarke's CD Release poster! I wanted it to have a similar feel to the CD but with brand new art. I included the Blue Tit, perched on the arrow (similar to the CD cover art). On the right hand side is a Ceder Waxwing and some little brown birds.

Poster art will be available, in a limited quantity, at the show. So if you live in Toronto, come on out to C'est What on June 11th!

Hope Takes Root


Here's my new submission to the Fluevog ad competition. This shoe is made with a bamboo heel, so to play that up, I wanted to give the feel of them growing out of a garden. These shoes are being advertised as environmentally concious, and giving hope, so I wanted to include the word in the illustration. I thought it was cute to do it with the worm tunnel.

Earth Day

I thought this illustration of Miss Fawn Cuttington's Rustic A-Frame was fitting on a day devoted to nature. I had fun doing the garden with the lettus, carrots, corn and spinach.

There's prints of it for sale here.


And here's a picture of my own little tomato grow opp. There's two types of cherry tomatoes! And I'm very excited about them. The long stemmed plant in the front is an avocado, but it can't seem to keep it's leaves.

Happy Earth Day!
