Baby Mania

Happy new year everyone! I've been making alot of artwork for my friends' new babies lately.  Thought i'd post a few.  The first is a drawing for my best friend who was pregnant at the time the piece was made... i was trying to imagine her baby of unknown sex.  The last 3 are for some talented photographer friends of mine who requested hipster instruments.  To anyone out there with newborns, congratulations! Seems like a really exciting, exhausting experience :)

Suite Suite Chinatown

Hey! If any of you are in town this Friday night, come join us at the Reel Asian Film Festival for a special presentation of "Suite Suite Chinatown", a collaborative film by 7 chinese-canadian filmmakers (including me) who where asked to run with the question "What is my chinatown?"

To add to the collaborative goodness, there will be live, original music performed by the EXERCISERS and Mary Ward Catholic Secondary School Band
It's 7:45pm at The Royal (608 College St.)
Website HERE

My contribution is actually buried within other filmmaker's pieces-- including some animation over live video. i had a really great time doing some photography tweaking and the animation worked out quite nicely (i think), here's a few samples:






Hope to see you guys there!

Development and Peace

I just got these in last week! Development and Peace, the international development branch of the Catholic church, asked me to illustrate and design their fall newsletter....and here it is-- i am super happy with the way it turned out. You can download a digital copy by clicking the '2010 Campaign Tabloid' Link found HERE. I finally have a little more time on my hands...looking forward to making more...stuff :)

SPLICED

A really long time ago, I worked on a cute little show called Spliced at Nelvana. The Director, Matt Ferguson, Art Director Don Gauthier, Character Guru Brad Coombs, and myself, buckled down for a few weeks of pre-production work-- I had a lovely time playing around with locations and thought i'd post some here.

Spliced is about the adventures of bizarre mutants that were left on a tropical island long after their mad scientist creator had been hauled away to jail. Think Looney tunes meets Island of Dr. Moreau.

Ch-ch-cherry bomb!

Are you going to watch The Runaways? I think Kristen Stewart makes a great Joan Jett! I hope the movie is good as the way the band looks.
