Francis Bacon

I just finished watching a movie about the British painter, Francis Bacon. A painter who has inspired me since I came across his work in my first years in my art schooling. The subject matter has always held my attention and I think a project coming up is going to be an homage to this [...]

A hockey/Canadian themed sunday afternoon video dump.

It is four o’clock and I’m settling in for the lanche game, but apparently they can’t figure out how to show video of the game so now it is being “broadcast” ala AM radio style. I’m still working on some tweeks with the “new” blog layout, but thought that I’d post some shizzle as I [...]

Stan Vanderbeek – Science Friction

I found this on the Saigon Market Collective site. Pretty sweet, I must say.

Hold your horse is.

I’m up early on a saturday, as per usual. Did you know that you can watch Uncle Buck for free in HD if you have comcast? Me neither, until this morning. Not a bad way to start out the day.
I’ve recently purchased this book via the tattered cover bookstore. It was done by the Canadian [...]

Josh Cochrane.

Josh Cochrane is an illustrator that I found on the interwebs this morning. I’m liking the technique and colors that are used throughout his pieces. Check out the work.

Why do they call me Mr. Happy?

Here it is easter weekend and after watching another highly upsetting performance by the lanche. I don’t think that I’m really programmed to follow sports like this. Old age has “readjusted” my recreation in some aspects, but in certain moments of clarity I realize that maybe I should not try to force the new “hobbies” [...]

a rebel without applause.

I’ve decided to pause on my illustration work for the evening to write a quick post. Above is another piece that I’ve been working on. Eventually it will be a series, loosely based on some literature that I’ve always found a bit interesting since I was in grade number four. More to come with [...]

Anthony Lister.

I’ve mentioned this artist before in my design:related profile, but he has posted even more work on the ol’ blog. The subject matter, colors, strokes, etc. are great! Check it out.
