Uhm - the van convention centre is GOR-g-OUS. Wooden walls and an enormous lawn on the roof (Taken with Instagram at Vancouver Convention Centre West)

Go now, and have your mind blown by the work of Alvaro Tapia Hidalgo. I have been bookmarking artists whose work I wish to buy and you can be I’ll be spending a few dollars here. Lovely stuff.
le droit de suite (the resale right) - VA (by Pierre-Emmanuel Lyet)
A short and sweet animation about artists’ resale rights in Europe, with a very clever use of typography.
Great use of typography!
Maggie and the wind: Another old drawing from 2003 found its way under my watercolor brush. Anyone remember this one? I was experimenting with drawing with my left hand at the time (I’m right handed), and had so much fun I continued. Anyhow I think this one turned out pretty well. I am personally entranced by Ms. Maggie’s sad stare.
A much nicer version of The Lion. I’ve had this drawing since 2003… and had rendered it initially in Adobe Illustrator. A few folks may remember that version. I had always kept the line drawings I’d used for it, and planned on watercoloring it up someday. Well someday arrived, and I’ve finished. I thoroughly enjoyed the painting process.
