A Journal of Art and Pretty Things

2012 is Coming!

I just found out it's the year of the Dragon. This is great news because I am a dragon! So, I'm assuming 2012 will be a good year for me. It must be.

Here are some pics of my 2012 calendar. Inspired by nature and city scape for something a bit different. This year I give you my whimsical illustration style meshed with a bit of bold and bright!

Thanks for loving art!

Sharing My Art in a New Way

I just finished making a new website and I love it! It protrays my art the way I want the world to see it, in a clean, fresh easy to navigate kinda way. Please let me know if you agree and how you find getting around the site with ease.

A Chance Encounter

This morning I was really feeling that my job was bringing me down and getting in the way of my passion. But getting on the subway to go to work connected to a chance encounter with someone who shares my passion! Sometimes the things that appear to be in the way help you to find the way...

 

Sunday Cafe

Sunday cafe sketching time. The coffee cup may say Paris but I am very much on Toronto. Wit a good imagination. Also it's decaf because otherwise I get all wired, which can be fun on occasion.
