Winter Village - Commission

Back in December I was commissioned to create a winter village scene. I really didn't want to make it look too Christmas-y so I made sure to leave out any holiday lights/decorations.

Best of Show - Ottawa Magazine

Another illustration for the Ottawa Magazine for their food & wine edition. This illustration was for the article Best of Show by David Lawrason. It was conducted at the Ottawa Wine Challenge and experts had to find the best wines out of 337 bottles submitted.

I really wanted to play with this image because I love illustrations involving food/alcohol. I did so many variations for this assignment and I have some of them below:

Fall into the Season

It's that time of the year where summer is starting to wind down and the colours and smells of fall are starting to emerge. We have many things to look forward to like the fresh crisp air of the season and probably most important of all, Halloween.

An Evening Stroll

Not too much to say about this piece. I went out with friends the other night for a bike ride in downtown Oakville and I got inspired by the park. Thoughts?

Fourth Year - First Semester

I don't know why it has taken me so long to post my work up from last semester. Overall I'm very satisfied with the result and happy with what I produced. Unfortunately I am not going to upload my final piece because it was probably the worst thing I've ever created lol. I was so sick and I forced myself to do it. I think it's currently being used as a desk wedge...so I have high regards for it.

Anywho let me just get you up to speed! My thesis was based on idioms about appearances so things like: Still Waters Run Deep, Never Judge a Book by Its Cover, Looks Are Only Skin Deep, etc. Below are the ones that I ended up illustrating. If you have any questions let me know!
