The Trick is

Well i'm actually not sure what the trick is... Still working on that one.

Days have been long and busy and tiring, no occasion to call my own and fiddle with this here place.So when time does find my head free it seems to be floating around the concept of Batman recently(Hanz Zimmers Dark Knight score isn't helping much either). To be more on the accurate side, the possibility of a real life Batman. How would something like that work? Could it even be done? Not in downtown Toronto, cus there would be no gritty to fight. You would have to get yourself up to Jane and Finch and even then who would want to stand menacing on top of a strip mall...

So my mind wanders.

I can safely say i have never drawn Batman before, but here he is. Not sure how i started working on this, it just sort of came out nice as you please. I see him Battered, more brawler like. With the question why not dark tinted eyes like an actual bat?

Toronto has a good skyline for a vigilante...

Enjoy

So mucha happenin

So the word on the wire.

I'm slow, i get it. Lotta things been a happening. What with an office move and oh you know patios wrapped in cigarettes, coffee, summer sun and sketchbooks. But on the flip side, there are sketchbooks full and they will be posted.

For now the drop is old school.

Here are some drawings i did for Mr Rian Johnson the genius who gave us the inspiring movie "Brick" and lately his jaw dropping masterpiece "The Brothers Bloom". I did these out of pure love and inspiration, which soon after led to Illustrating Mr Johnsons original novella for Brick. Of which you can see here

enjoy

Pandas and Robots

It's late again

I always seem to stay up way past my bedtime. Gets hard waking up in the mornings. But who are we to hold back the creativity when it comes. So it comes late... It is what it is.
I'm trying to keep the posts as regular as possible. So here is some more scribbly scratches. This fella I tend to use for therapy. His name is Fu, he's a panda god. Or so he says. I'm noticing i have quite the obsession with samurai swords. they always find themselves stuck to a character here or there.

A little paint on canvas experiment finished tonight. Table top with painting.



My eyes are lemons... i'm going to sleep...

Pitter Patter

So the rain is coming down like it don't care and the grey light pouring through this here window is making me think of a long slow pull on a cigarette. Funny how summer works isn't it.


I've been a tinkering since my talented art guru of a friend Goran Bukvic pushed me to start a blog. My art will hopefully start popping up soon enough.

But for now a scribble a scratch...

This is Kazuo or as i like to call him Kaz, He popped up on my first post below. He is a confused soul, looking for something or someone he lost. He can't quite remember where. He can't quite remember who. So he bides his time working as a Samurai for hire. See the boy has skills, whip sharp and dirty skills. Wouldn't you want to hire him?

don't worry

There will be alot more of Kaz as he rattles around in my brain. Searching through the haystack for his needle...

So this is a blog

So here's the pitch, my first post to my first blog.  2:08 in the morning and i just finished the first bit of rudimentary layout on this here tool of sharing. The city lights are glowing and there is a fine mist in the air that makes everything feel uneasy.  but so easy.  My heads overflowing and my sketchbooks are get the old dust eye.  so I'm dusting things off and throwing it out there. lets see if it's a catch.  for now here's something from a little project called "Samurai Wanted" enjoy. 

I got knives in my eyes.  I'm going to sleep
