Plein air in Provence

Joel and I took a trip late last year to Provence, in France. After working non-stop on the book, we felt we deserved a reward for all our work. Off we went to the land of Van Gogh, Gauguin and Cézanne, to experience some of that famous Provençal light that they were obsessed with (it really is a thing). It was beautiful to experience the area in late fall when everything looked extra golden and the tourists were few and far between.

We also had pretty great weather for plein air sketching, the only tricky part this time was how the sun set so early in November, so we had to plan our time accordingly.

Every Chip Stand & HomeSense

When Joel and I started our Every Chip Stand side-project nearly 10 years ago, we never imagined that our artwork would eventually strike such a chord that the chain store HomeSense would want to license it and sell it in their stores. We’re very excited to have the art available to a such a wide audience, printed in poster-size and framed, ready to hang. It’s really cool seeing people’s reaction to the art on Instagram and being able to bring a little bit of Canadiana nostalgia to their living rooms 🙂

Halloween illustrations

I had a great summer this year, but I’m always excited for my favourite autumn season. Joel and I put on a big Halloween display at our house, and I look forward to it every year when the kids fill the streets by the hundreds for trick-or-treating. Here are some unashamedly Gothic Halloween-themed illustrations:

 

Portrait of Edgar Allan Poe

Wistman’s Wood

Here is a travel illustration I did as a portfolio-piece about things found in Wistman’s Wood, a mystical section of forest in the Dartmoor National Park. There is a legend that a fanged dog roams the wood!
