Welcome!

I was asked to help kit out the design studio of Red Meets Blue.  They wanted something simple for the stairwell wall running up towards the RedMeetsBlue sign.  Using some paint marker pens here to create the simple welcome line work for the studio. More work to go with a boardroom wall piece. check it out

The TIGER

Just finished reading The Tiger by John Vaillant and I had a visual I wanted to illustrate so here it is.  The book follows the true story of a tiger that is stalking and killing men in a small town in far east Russia.  The tiger is unusually large for the area so I wanted to show that sense of scale between the tiger and the man and the stalking nature of the tiger amidst the eerie calm of the cold Primorye forest.

Working with a few new brushes here, let me know what you think?

The Sparrow Looks Up at The Machine

The Eels

I saw the Eels in LA when my girlfriend and I were there earlier this year.  It was a great show and they're one of my favourites so here's a little tribute to those hombre lobos.
