Little Women – Illustrated Review

Back during Christmas holidays and over January 2020, I experienced Little Women by Louisa May Alcott for my Book Club - I say experience because I read the book and watched both the 1994 and 2019 movies. I'm typically not a fan of the classics but Hayley, a friend in my Book Club, has consistently picked books that I ... ...

COVID-19 Stay Home and Draw Week 3

Hi! Last week was my first "dark week" of COVID-19 isolation. But times of sad and frustration were also countered with joy and gratitude from a lot of check-ins with friends on Google Hangouts, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams.

A roller-coaster of emotion, up and down, but feeling like we are all in this together. Other stuff I've done to occupy ...

COVID-19 – Stay Home and Draw YEG

I started working from home March 13, 2020 once COVID-19 preparations began in earnest at my workplace. It's been a adjustment (both weird as well as kinda good) and its been emotional too, if I'm being honest. I'm wrestling with my worry - for my family overseas, friends who own their own businesses, work in private ...

Trout-Mere

I am loving Lynda Barry's new book 'Making Comics'. This is a result of one of her brilliant exercises from that book. She says that you need to just let your hands and your mind wander and something personal will come out. So out came this Trout-Mere but living in a pacific ocean environment (notice the kelp and purple ...
