  • Knife and Tape

    I will be setting up a work space on the 4th floor of the Gladstone to demonstrate my processes on Saturday the 24th and Sunday the 25th of May. I will be working on a new piece over the course of these two afternoons and will be happy to chat about my various techniques. It was a great opening but it was over way too soon, and I know that many of you would have liked to come by. Here is another chance to stop in to see the show, hang out with me and learn a bit about how I make the works.

  • 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!

    I have been awarded a commission to walk on the Bruce Trail and document the Greenbelt from my perspective.
