My Blog is one year old today. Hooray! lets toast.

For this post I'll showcase the largest painting I've ever done, it's a mural and it's taller than me!

I miss you Take a Break coffee shop.

Objective Tear

The moon... lonely witness...poor poor Earth

3 Decades

Today I'm 30 years Old. Here is a picture of me actually turning 30.

Whoah..

This was obviously inspired by a Grateful Dead album cover. And was a lot of fun to paint

Loneliness

Oil paint on weathered wooden board. It's crazy how much paint wood can absorb if it's not primed at all. cool effect though.

Rain Forest

Supernova

Illumination

A buddy of mine Lee, (Link to follow, perhaps on the weekend, along with many others. Time to update.) today reminded me how much I love to draw (and Paint) trees.
This is a photograph of my largest painting, about 4 by 5 feet. somewheres around 10 years old...? Still one of my favourites. it's acrylic and wax.
I think perhaps the next few posts will showcase my deep fondness for Trees and their ilk.

Dancin' Lizard!

This simple little oil painting is I think (about 3 years?) old. crazy....

Hurry-Train-A-Comin' !

How could he not see That comin'? must've been distracted by those far off balloons..

Smaug

A drawing of the dragon Smaug from The Hobbit. This was a another commissioned piece for a fellow Tolkien admirer.
Sorry, the jpeg's a bit fuzzy.

Flowers

Alright, I'm almost four hours late.. A twilight moon eclipse captured me.

Month O' March Posts

Well, since I missed the first of March , I guess I'll just post two today to make up for it. There. All better now. stay tuned this month for more old and new work, as I scrounge to update every day this month.

I live in a fantasy world

More Flash

Two more downtime doodles done in Flash..kinda cheezy, but I do like my cheese!

Berserker!

A viking on a rampageroonie. This flash piece was inspired by Walshie's flash doodles, (go check out his blog..) Flash paint tool= multi-colour marker that never runs dry..FUN!

Some small concept work for a short film I think i'll call "RailRoad Circus", for now..
Hopefully you'll see more and more of this project..If I can ever get back on track.

Sketchies

Hey all! May this new year bring you peace, joy and a little whimsy!

Twins

BeerStain Bear

I could not resist... even though he looks more like some kind of badger.

Hallow's eve revisited

Some devil doodles. The first one is a sketch of Lucy while watching Dracula, the clown is who I was for Hallow's eve although my head never popped off like that, and the zombie is from last year.

Zen on a string

My Yo-Yo collection..so far. 1. The Looper, Fast Eddie plastic yoyo, metal axle, from Alexander Graham Bell Museum. Score! 2. Gold yoyo classic, Plastic lightweight, this guy I don't use too often..but looks cool 3. Green wooden Pro-Yo-yo classic original, quite worn, this one gets a lot of use. 4. Plastic light up yo-yo from Osheaga Music festival in Montreal, little too heavy but nice novelty. 5. Wooden yo-yo I once received as a gift from a good friend, this guy's from Jamaica.
I used to have a couple more, but they were either destroyed or lost.

O'l Groggy McSydeways

Avast! A drawing for International Talk like a Pirate day...which was yesterday, technically speaking.

Sometimes the circus thing just doesn't go according to plan...

Summer Honeysuckle

For my mom, on her Birthday.

"Down the track came a hobo hiking..."

Few recent creative developments..One of which is designs for a super simple animated short i want to put together this summer. mainly just a walk cycle and a few layouts, it's about a hobo Dreamin'. See if I still got it..

..I'm all over the place..

From the Garden..

Some Friends of mine I'd like you to meet..

Crow

I've recently returned from a visit back home. then jumped right into a new job. whew, bout time I dropped something into this bucket. Good to see my Family again, as well as some good ol' friends. My Dad was exhibiting some of his amazing sculpture work at a local Gallery while I was home, I've added the link to the show in the sidebar. (Arend Nieuwland)check it.
The crow doodle is inspired by a friends tattoo idea..

Oldest and Fatherless..

"Old Tom Bombadil is a merry fellow;
Bright blue his jacket is, and his boots are yellow."
