Wow. Have you seen this stunning film? Wow. I have always been enraptured by the beauty and mystery of everything under water. The impossibly saturated colours of all that swims, the astounding design of the creatures. I have always felt more connected to my own life, somehow, when I’m under water. Which is why IContinue reading “My Octopus Teacher.”

Oscar Posters 2020
It’s my fav time of year! I have loved the Academy Awards since I was a little kid, and my love of film has only grown since then. A few years ago, I decided to do a poster for any of the nominated films that I managed to see. I don’t get to use myContinue reading “Oscar Posters 2020”
Oscar Posters 2019
This is always a fun exercise for me each year, since I LOVE film, the Oscars and designing stuff! These are more for me than anyone else 🙂 But if you enjoy them too, then cool! **I only design posters for the films I see, so I can design the poster with the full pictureContinue reading “Oscar Posters 2019”
Oscar Posters 2018
I managed to watch and design 8 out of the 9 Best Picture Nominees for the Oscars this year – one of my fav times of the year! These were all fun to watch and design. Congrats to all the films nominated, and especially “Shape of Water” for winning Best Picture!
My Oscar Posters 2017
This is my tradition of watching the Oscar-nominated films, and then doing my minimalist version of the posters. This past Feb I had MANY more intentions of doing a lot more posters – but it turns out having a baby takes a lot of your time! LOL. Here are the four I managed to squeakContinue reading “My Oscar Posters 2017”
Oscar Posters 2015
I have been holding out to see “Selma” before posting these, but I still have not been able to find that anywhere…. alas one day I will, and shortly thereafter add my version of the poster to this collection. There were 8 nominees this year, and I decided against seeing “American Sniper”. So I willContinue reading “Oscar Posters 2015”
“Christmas in Connecticut” sketch
This past Christmas, things did not go as planned. [Such is life!] However, I managed one sketch earlier on in December, based on a classic Christmas film “Christmas in Connecticut” [1945]. Next year I hope to do a lot more based on my fav holiday films! 🙂
A whole mess of MO-sketches!
Another catch-up post with a bunch more Movember sketches! Drawing to a close, but what a month it has been! Day 23 – Commander Hadfield – the first Canadian to walk in space! That’s pretty sweet indeedy. Brush pen on moleskin. Day 24 – Brother-in-law request – Smokey and the Bandit! Brush pen onContinue reading “A whole mess of MO-sketches!”
Sketching “Psycho”.
Trying an exercise I haven’t done in a while…. watching a favourite film, pausing it whenever I like the composition, and trying to sketch it as fast as possible. Since I am [more than] slightly obsessed with anything Hitchcock created, and it’s almost Halloween, “Psycho” seemed appropriate. These didn’t all turn out, but with theContinue reading “Sketching “Psycho”.”
Halloween-inspired Inktober’s.
Work has been really busy, and I can’t post the stuff I work on… so I am always trying to do a daily drawing of my own…. especially right now with Inktober! One is a retro-inspired suggestion by my wife, and the other is a film-inspired sketch from “Hocus Pocus”. I got some commissions toContinue reading “Halloween-inspired Inktober’s.”
