acrylic and permanent marker on canvas, 24″x30″

A new painting! I’m working on a few paintings of old toys; this was the best drawing I’ve come up with so far. Lots of junk in the basement to inspire me.

My contributions to the Erotic show on now at the Leyton gallery in St. John’s. It’s up until November 29th.

Hot Karate Lesson and Over the Fence, both are 20″x24″, acrylic and permanent marker on canvas.

You can decide which is which.

Here is a larger (18″x24″) painting on canvas of the bird I made before xmas for a friend.

I went ahead and changed the colour scheme, as I wanted it to be a new and different painting than the first drawing that I really liked.

I’ve also been lucky enough to move into a new, bigger and brighter studio space with some pals, so I hope to make some larger paintings in the very near future!

I seem to be on some sort of a yellow kick. I had some trouble with colour, really wish I could come up with some new ones…

Here are some of my new paintings; I’m having lots of fun in the new studio with the boys.

These are all acrylic and permanent marker on canvas.

Backhoe and Octagon Pond, Looking North (both 24″x30″) are both for the landscape show on now at The Leyton Gallery in St. John’s. The zebra (12″x14″) is a gift for Scott’s niece, the most adorable thing I’ve ever seen. I mean person.

A few more paintings. The Tortoise painting is for an upcoming VANL fundraiser; the other two are currently at the Leyton Gallery for the annual summer show.

Two tortoise on a plate, 10″x10″, acrylic and permanent marker on canvas.

San Diego Flamingoes, 30″x42″, acrylic on canvas.

Octagon Pond Looking South, 24″x30″, acrylic and permanent marker on canvas.

Here are a couple of more recent paintings.

This giraffe is for a tall friend who is expecting a little girl very soon.

This rhino is in-progress and is enjoying a bath.

I made a second batch of my latest comic book this week, and I took a picture of all the crap layed out for you to enjoy.

If you’d like to buy a copy ($3) or make a trade, please contact me! I might be heading to FanExpo 09 next weekend, so I figured I should have a few more on hand. I’ll also be spending the next few months in Toronto. I’m hoping to do some printing and volunteering at the Open Studio printshop, and make more comics! And probably play some Nintendo and visit the zoo a zillion times.

Here are the last two large paintings I’ll be making, for a little while. I’m definitely going to miss my awesome studio for the next few weeks.

Rhino Bath, acylic and permanent marker on canvas

I did some blind contours today while waiting for my cousin. I’m pretty happy with them, I think there’s a painting in there somewhere.

I think they turned out better than these cruddy, lazy ones I did last week at the park.
