AZURE

Hi friends,
Exciting news today: AZURE magazine's Annual Green Building Guide came out today and guess who has an illustration inside?
Spoiler alert: it's me!!
I was asked to do a cutaway illustration of a building, showing different elements inside that are "green". This was a great experience for me because I finally mastered the straight line! I typically never use a ruler in my illustrations but with this project I had no choice. I'm really happy with the outcome. Hope you all like!

La La La

Hello friends!
Here is something to sink your teeth into...
My pal and ginger-friend Russell Gibbs is the proud papa of these new online music mixes, released at the end of every month, on his blog www.llessurdotca.tumblr.com .
He asked me to create something special for his third installment and here it be!

They are super foxy, non? Three lovely foxes ready for a day of sunbathing at the beach. I got my inspiration from Raphael's "The Three Graces"


The mixes are awesome and totally got me moving during this unpredictably horrible/amazingly beautiful month of March... looking forward to April!

xoxo

Oh and stay tuned for more exciting drawn out newz !

BIRTHDAY CARD!


Hi all,
There is something that I really love in life and appreciate to no end: homemade birthday cards. Actually, scratch that, homemade greeting cards. Christmas, birthday, festivus, or Valentine's Day, I'd rather get something made from a friend than bought (well... there are always some exceptions... )
Anyways here is a Birthday card I made for a friend that I thought I'd share. Not just because I think it is adorable, but because my friend introduced me to the coolest rap group on this planet right now: Die Antwoord (The Answer)
They are from South Africa. They live with their parents and grandparents. They are considered trailer trash. They have amazing stage-names, a well designed website, and wicked music videos. I am in love, to say the least. I have watched their video Zef Side everyday.
Anways my friend has a no-secret crush on Yo-Landi and I thought she should wish him a Happy Birthday on paper.


Watch the video Zef Side. You won't regret it.
