CIA Report

With this damning CIA report, I thought I would go through the archive and find some images of the Bush admin.

I did a couple of images for an imagined Tarot card deck that had W.Bush as the fool walking off the edge into Iraq. You have Gitmo as the Tower card, incorrectly I made Rumsfeld the devil card and Cheney the Hermit, based on the way he was always hidden from view like the Emperor in Star Wars.

Drawing/ Illustrations

Flipping through a lot of old illustrations, there is a real elegance to the line work in old drawings. 

A guy from OCA would say that is due to pen and ink of the era and he might be right. Good ol' Roark, actually he really liked ink and brush if memory serves- our teacher just loved him, I think he used to blush.

I was looking at this drawing and I love not only the font for the word, but the way this drawer communicated the idea of "correspondence section", passing a letter

, A Boys Own Magazine circa 1915.

You are always welcome to come to the studio and flip through it yourself, standard fee applies: a coffee from the Jet.

Comic Book

Finally getting some comic books finished, some of them are little 8 panel ones, I hope to have those done in the next week.

I really have to thank Willow Dawson, Graphic Artist par excellence. She is a Toronto based artist who taught a terrific class at U of T this summer, I took it and I think it has really pushed me to get some of my work to cross the finish line.

Please check out Willow's work

As for my comics, I will post them as they get printed... here is a tease, panel 1 from my mini comic- Immigrant Fathers Are Drama Queens
