december dreaming

hey

i have a blog?

yes apparently i do. the girlfriend reminds me every now and then.

alright so lets do this! *cracks knuckles*

how is everyone doing? it is cold here in Toronto. snowing and whatnot.

Christmas crap in every corner, shoppers shopping and

being filled with "holiday spirit" as they honk their horns and shove shopping carts... haha festive! i think i'm too Charlie Brown for the season. oh brother.

so a few things have been going on... here, let me tell you.

the other day while watching Scrooged on tv i decided i should do a nice Christmas drawing or something to make an e-card or whatever out of it... because lets face it its too late for ME to figure out printing and mailing before the date. this is what i came up with:

yea a bit darker than i had expected. hence i will have to make another.

for those of you that have extra money and time kicking around, here is my Wish List for this year. :) on the top of the list is a crossbow.. or a recurve bow. unfortunately there was an incident in the city not too long ago about a murder involving a crossbow, putting a damper on my crossbow excitement. in reality if an individual wishes to harm another individual he/she will do so with whatever instruments are available to them.

eg. Ms.Scarlet with the Lead Pipe in the Billiard room. anyways.... list:

here is a commission piece i did for a talented photographer in California. who just happens to be my cousin. it was a wedding gift for a friend of his.

here is what is going on at Galerie D'Este in Montreal. go check it out.

here is what is going on at SleepingGiant Gallery in Toronto. go check it out. very fun stuff.

also i will be part of the AdventShow again at Fine&Dandy Gallery in Toronto. be sure to check that out as well!

lets see... that sums stuff up yea? i will hopefully snap out of whatever daze i am in soon and get posting... also updating that website of mine... also that facebook page i made.

til then... hope everyone is doing well and having good holiday happy family friends fun time.

peace.

thursday and friday

hey,

i have nothing huge to report just yet. as such i will let you know what is going on this week. short notice yes, but still.

first up is IT'S MEANT TO BEE

a cool group show going on at Dat Salon featuring some lovely Toronto illustrators, including yours truly. the.... rules of the show are that the artists are to use only black+yellow medium + the colour of the "canvas"... so this should be interesting.

411 is as follows:

Start Time:	Thursday, July 8, 2010 at 8:00pm
End Time:	Friday, July 9, 2010 at 12:00am
Location:	Dat Salon
Street:	442e Duffrin st
City/Town:	Toronto, ON or click HERE for facebook page.

next up is a show at SHOW & TELL gallery.

'The Beauty of Failure' a solo show by Anthony Lister.

this guy is pretty awesome. he produces some super great comic-book inspired paintings; raw lines and colours. its stuff i personally find very inspirational... even though i am obviously a failure at describing it.

411 is as follows:

Start Time:	Friday, July 9, 2010 at 7:00pm
End Time:	Sunday, August 8, 2010 at 7:00pm
Location:	Show & Tell Gallery

so.. yea. this is what i am up to later this week. that and the usual.

i will try and post some new work soon. also some exciting news about other projects i am working on. yes yes.
