Portraits

I don’t often do portrait illustration, though I enjoy it a lot. Here are a couple illustrations I did for the fall issue of Headway Magazine representing a couple global health researchers.

A little late with this, but happy new year! Some happy new watercolours from a happy new card I made for Sean’s birthday.

Hello, 2009.

Matrioshkas for the New Year

I’m researching Russian images for my new comic and fancied painting some matrioshka dolls.

Also, there’s an interview with me over at The Comics Reporter today re: Ojingogo. Tom Spurgeon’s blog is a daily visit for me, so it was a pleasure to answer his very thoughtful questions.

Here’s to 2009… Happy new year.

Three Gators

alligator illustration

I was home for the holidays and I brought my Montreal sleep-schedule with me. I was doing a lot of painting after everyone else went to sleep. Watercolours. Acrylics. Paints my niece had lying around.

I have big plans for these little gators (or crocs; whichever you like).
