Coffin Canvas

Earlier last year I stretched myself a coffin shaped canvas and did a painting on it for my friend Alison Woodward! I used regular pre-cut stretcher bars and just finangled some corner bracing with various hardware bits to create the wider angles. 

Sorceress

Here's a painting I did late last year! It is mostly acrylic on paper board, original is 16x20".
It is framed and for sale, and prints are available up to 16x20" for now.

House on a hill

Here's a drawing! I worked on it a bit more after this but it still isn't done yet.
I used a brush pen with Koh-i-noor ink on Canson Montval paper. About 9x12"ish

SPACE ART

Here is something I finished recently but haven't varnished yet! It's acrylic on a 6x8x1.5" wood cradled panel. It was a project I did for a class I was taking last semester called 'Black Holes and Other Transformations of Energy'...

Art school!

Sleeping Queen

I'm finally done this drawing for my Decorative Illustration final crit tomorrow morning, and after days of mopping my watering eyeballs and cleaning lizard poop off of my drawing I am thrilled to be finished.

Hello! I finally got my sewing desk all set up so I tried it out by making this little pouch. I'm going to make a whole bunch more because I like it.
I also have these little packs of goodies available in the shop now! They're only $5 so if you buy one you can feel good knowing you bought me a meal or bottle of ink. And you can give the cards you don't like to your friends!

Valentines

It's VALENTIMES because it's almost time for Valentines.
 I had an assignment for my Decorative Illustration class where I had to design some greeting cards so I made these. The bee one is my favourite.

Farewell: first 8 pages

Hello!
Now my semester is over, I finished 8 pages of the story I'm working on and polished them up all shiny. Here they are, I'll hopefully have it available in a cheap zine format before I complete the rest as a finished book!
This probably won't be the cover but it's temporary, I recycled another piece for now.

3 more new pages

Please try to ignore how badly formatted this post is. I'm still not feeling well.

more in heeere

3 more pages

Continuing on my last post, here are three more images that will be part of the project/book/thing. My scanner is a tiny bit smaller than the drawings and they're not all cleaned up or anything, but I'm just trying to churn them out as quickly as possible D:
It's been raining a lot so I've been hunched over my desk with tea and drawing so I won't have to go anywhere.
Hope you like them!

Farewell Project

This year I'm in my fourth year at Emily Carr, which means I can work on a grad project. Right now I'm finally starting to produce finished images for my project, which will be some kind of hardbound book containing a narrative of images. I'm not too caught up in what exactly the finished product will be but I've been working on a story and doing lots of sketchies and hopefully the end result will be neat.

 I hope you like these first 2 pages, I won't describe the story too much right now but this will probably be at the beginning.

 I have lots of drawing to do! I hope it can be 10-20 pages long. :s

Typologies

8&1/2x1,  acrylic gouache and ink on bristol

I drew some lips for school. They are all musicians, performers, and artists of some kind that I thought had really extraordinary lips/lipstick styles.
Recognize any?

My job is fun

 Alison Woodward and I  just finished re-making one of the awesomest things I've worked on this summer. I don't have a lot of time to make stuff for myself in the summer because I have an awesome real-life job where I make fun things for Public Dreams Society. We made a giant Jenga and Twister game under the direction of crafty mastermind Alison Therriault to be rented out and sent to various festivals and events. They were awesome but the materials we used didn't hold up to the abuse so we had to repair and eventually re-do them completely. I had to throw the Twister away but I'm going to be making a new one soon I guess!
 We just finished the Jenga today though and it turned out awesome, we tried it out and took some photos and I think I need to get my stilts on to play it next time.

Lonely Forest

Just finished this piece, ink on paper.

Bass Coast

Hello! I had a magical time at Bass Coast with my BFF Lucas thanks to this drawing I did for the festival! Because Bass Coast is an amazing project and it is run by wonderful ladies, including The Librarian who is probably my favourite DJ in Vancouver/everywhere.

Hooray business cards

  What is up my gentleladies and ladymen,
 I have so many business cards now, and they are all shiny and have the intoxicating smell of new shiny printed things. 5 DIFFERENT DESIGNS! Soon I'll have some stickers too! I'll be making little cheapsy sticker/card/button?! packs with a little zine you can buy soon.
