this year ends...
Hello everyone. I have spent some time updating the website after some new additions from this past year that got left behind. I have a slew of new work in the collage section of my illustrations, and added in some adored work I did for a few albums that came out this year and can be found in commissions. I also have a new series in progress that you can find in the photographic series section entitled "the line from here to here" I hope you enjoy.
Happy New Year!

Beyond Imaginings: Eight artists encounter Ontario's Greenbelt
I have been awarded a commission to walk on the Bruce Trail and document the Greenbelt from my perspective.

"This summer, Harbourfront Centre plans to unveil a new large-scale photographic exhibition along Toronto's waterfront. The subject: Ontario's Greenbelt.

Eight emerging contemporary photographers will create large scale images that will document their exploration of Ontario's Greenbelt. Each photographer has been chosen to explore three specific areas of importance to the Greenbelt: Working the Land, Natural Beauty and People of the Greenbelt."
