Wednesday, June 20, 2012 at 10:27PM Today I went for a little (very hot) walk in Toronto. I had the pleasure of meeting with a handful of brilliant individuals in the context of creative ventures while sampling some very tasty espresso. I am excited to share with you what came out of this walk over the coming weeks!

Keeping it fresh - custom foot tattoo design.
Many thanks for the trust & opportunity Luke.

Wednesday, June 13, 2012 at 03:46PM It is always a privilege to be asked to illustrate a tattoo design for someone. This piece is still in the early stages, but I'm stoked with the initial sketch up.
Enjoy
Monday, June 11, 2012 at 11:17AM This is a question that I have been asked more & more frequently over the last few years, & so I thought it would be a good opportunity to share a few thoughts.
Firstly - I am not a tattoo artist. I am an illustrator who can create the line work & greyscale/colour final to be used by a tattoo artist when inking you in person.
Secondly - With fear of sounding like your parents... have a long think about what you would like to have permanently inked on your body because it is going to be around for a while. Take the time to research your idea, define a colour palette, be confident about where it will be placed on your body & most importantly find a brilliant tattoo artist that you can trust who will do your idea justice & often beyond.
How this process unfolds from my end...
Opening Consultation > 1st round review > 2nd round review > Line final > Greyscale/Colour Final
To begin this conversation & process please feel welcome to contact me. Many thanks
For a visual I thought I would show you one of my latest designs which I had the privilege of doing for a close mate of mine (Abby) currently residing in Vancouver, BC.

I was recently asked by a close friend to design this tattoo for him which will eventually be inked as a half sleeve. It is always a combination of excitement & intimidation for me when it comes to designing tattoo's for individuals in the knowledge that it will be a permanently inked on their skin. That being said - it is always a privilege & I love the challenge. Thanks Graham for your trust - much love.

Recently I was asked by Coriander's owner - Sarah to hand illustrate a design that could be reproduced as a hand inking stamp for their gift certificates & envelopes. It is a privilege to collaborate with a local business that is always looking to bring something fresh to the table of creativity.

As my family knows well, I will often finish an illustration & quickly conclude that 'this is the best piece I have ever done.' The reality in that moment & in my mind is that it is the 'best' because there is something uniquely beautiful about capturing the freshest moment of inspiration & translating it onto paper. 'Sing My Love' is a visual reflection on giving thanks for this life.

Friday, May 25, 2012 at 10:49AM I have just finished the final illustration in this set of three that unpacks the beauty of being known for who are. This collection is the celebration of being honest with ourselves no mater how difficult it may seem at the time. Deception lies in the shadows of self hate, but redemption is found when we venture into the light of transparency. Welcome to the journey.
Individual prints will be available via my Etsy site in the coming days!

I'm currently collaborating with a group of creatives for an upcoming online advertisement here in ON, Canada. The character above is one of three for the final submission, but before they are all finished & moving across your screen I thought you may enjoy a little look into the process. Enjoy.
