Blog, I'd like you to meet Hermes, the Bike.

Sorry, no drawings, I've been slacking. Actually I've just been out and about all over the place. The last three days have been REALLY hectic.



If we're friends at all, you probably know I stupidly managed to get my bike stolen last week. I have no photos of it as far as I know, it was useful, but it was dreadful ugly and uncomfortable. This new one on the other hand, is SWEET! So sweet I had to drape myself all over it in unflattering ways in order to fully describe my love.

I was a bit torn between the name Hermes or Charon, but in the end Hermes just SOUNDS better.

Thanks to my cousin for helping me pick out this baby from his shop in Caledon, and for giving me a great deal too. And for not making too much fun of me when I couldn't make it back up the hill.

p.s. I found those stickers on the spokes and stuck them to my nipples. I don't know why, it seemed like the thing to do at the time

Day 41, 42, 43

Day 39, 40

Spent the last two days slowly hacking away at this spread. I'm sure it'll be another two days before I dub it full and move on.

Day 38: pattern

Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been stressed and needed a break for a few days. Last night I was relaxing and sketching and watching movies and this one came out. It really makes me want to work more with repetitive patterns and shapes.

One Week.

One Week - movie trailer

You should see this movie. It's really good.

(It may be my civic Canadian duty to say that, but I swear, it's true)

mildly offensive comic I didn't write.

I did this comic for some of my mom's friends in the Guidance dept. at her school. I didn't write it, I don't quite get the jokes, except that the black dude is the green lantern, and there's a super girl and batgirl and they are all real guidance councellors. It was made as a present for the green lantern guy. Anyway, as a former student, I kind of find it insulting, but whatever. It was fun to draw anyway.

I like the teenager a lot (who was described in the notes as an "airhead type")

Day 37: Me at age 100

For Phil's contest.

Day 33, 34, 35, 36

WOW, sorry about not posting, I was doodling lots, but not managing to do much else. I'm a little stressed out at the moment, and my immediate response to stress is to SHUT DOWN. Which is something I'm working through, since obviously it's not a very desirable quality in an illustrator.

Happy Birthday Mr. Sendak, you're one of my favourites. I'm going to be Max for halloween, that's how cool you are.

I'm still in love with my new pen.

Day 29, 30

I got a gorgeous brushpen today. I couldn't wait to find paper, I tested it right on the envelope it came in.
