Noisemaker

Recently I've been working on a music video for Two Hours Traffic. My buddy Paul put me in touch with the talented folks over at Shark Teeth Films, who were kind enough to let me contribute to the project. I've been designing the locations and painting the backgrounds. Music videos are some of my favourite projects to work on - I only wish they came up more often!

Here are a few of the finished backgrounds. You can see some more of my background paintings at the Shark Teeth Films blog, as well as some concept/color pieces that I originally pitched, along side a bunch of other development for the video. I'm lookin forward to seeing the whole thing together. I'll try to post it up here when it's done.

Deck The Walls

It seems like the more productive I'm being, the less attention the blog gets. I'm able to share a bit of what I've been busy with, finally!

If you're in or around the Brantford Ontario area, come check out the Brantford Arts Block on October 9th for the opening of a group show entitled "Deck The Walls", which runs through November 1st. The exhibition will consist of art on and about skateboards. I'll be showing 4 portraits, all of which are oils painted on skate decks. I'll also be painting a 6x12ft installation prior to the show. For the opening they'll be showing a time lapse video of the painting of the installation.

Here's a preview of one of the decks. I'll try my best to share some nice photos of the whole series, once the show has opened.

Needless to say I'm pretty excited about this. I really hope I'm able to set aside more time for fine arts in the future - I feel like gallery work is a natural progression from what I've been doing lately. Hope to see some friendly faces at the show!

The Anthology Project

 

 

I haven't posted much lately. Mostly because I've been spending my free time putting together a comic for The Anthology Project. I'm having a lot of fun with it, but it's also taking up a fair amount of time. I'll make sure to let everyone know when the book is available, but keep an eye out for it early in the new year. In the mean time though, it'll be getting representation at a few comic conventions between now and then, where there'll be previews of the upcoming work.
