ChronoTrigger Fanart

My friends were recently doing some fan art of Chrono Trigger.. and I just so happen to be playing it on my ds.. so thought i'd do a little tribute.

GOSH Charity Monster Book

This was done for GOSH's (Great Ormond Street Hospital) Charity. They are putting together a monster book comprised of monsters the children came up with. I was lucky enough to be invited to do an illustration for this book project. My monster was Zerain-Miniteur.

Moose-Toad Guardian

It's been a while since i updated. Mainly because I've been lazy.. but I have been drawing. this was a recurring theme, your guardian spirit, from the vancouver sketchgroup, but I updated mine since I last did this from a toad to a Moose-Toad.

Drink Draw Thursday

I was sketching at Kushi Bar last night in Seattle with some fellow artists I met at Anomaly last weekend. Thanks for the invite Scholes! It was mainly comprised of artists from Arenanet (Katy, James, Danny, Dave, Matt, and Kekai)... I think Tom and Tiffany freelances.. but i invited my friend, Dave, who's also a concept artist working at Gryptonite and he brought his friend Mike from Moonshot... so it was a good mix... otherwise i'd be the odd one out. here were the sketches from last night. I started a large moleskine as i had run out of the small ones... seemed like it took forever to fill a page... :P

my first book!...

debuted @ Canzine West: Broken Pencil - a zine show for independently published books. thanks to Shiu for helping me out with printing and the business cards. The whole process took about 3-4 days. printing 1 day. stitch binding 1 day. cutting/cropping 1/2 day. and putting on the cover.. 1 day.

I planned on making it a hard cover.. but due to lack of experimentation and time constraints.. i decided to go with the soft - the paper i used were just shy of a few centimeters for the hardcover. the book defintely has a DIY-feel to it as the edges of the pages were hacked at with my razor blade. but thought it added to the charm. the book is a compilation of sketches from my NY sketchbook when i was visiting my sister after my UK trip.

I haven't decided to put this up for sale on the web yet.. as i have yet to setup some sort of online payment thing AND i probably dont have enough copies made yet to be selling them on the web... but if you are interested shoot an email my way.
