Inspired by Aidans Aeris cosplay, Berger is not to be upstaged! Berger as Cloud from FF7! Defending honor and the ladies..

When your parents find out about your fetish...

Carrie's sock and underwear fetish finally exposed :p I was wondering why my dirty socks and the occasional undies go MIA from the bathroom hamper... somebody's been building a stash.

Sex and the City

Our most recent addition, like Berger and Aidan, Carrie is named after Carrie Bradshaw, from Sex and the city. I dedicate this to the opening sequence :)

Character Designs : Sticks & Stones

These are some of my character designs for the upcoming Epic Canadiana book for Cloudscape comics. The story is written by John ward. I don't normally do character sheets and design passes like this, so I'd thought this time around, i'd treat this like an actual production and do full color renders of these even though the end result is gonna be in black and white... just for kicks. Finalizing designs over the next week so color should be under way. yay colors!

Karen Magnussen

The Connaught Skating club is hosting a benefit show for Karen Magnussen, a Canadian figure skating icon, who suffered ammonia poisoning whilst teaching in her work facility. She is fighting an uphill battle not only for her health, but also for accountability on the issue and is in need of funds to do so. This cause means a lot to someone near and dear to me, thus I thought I'd do a little tribute illustration of my own. For more info on the benefit show please visit the Connaught Skating Club website.
