Really?!?... REALLY!

Hey Gang

So I have been having some trouble hunting down my income tax return over the last couple months. I found out today that some jerk-faced cheat stole it and cashed it on my behalf. I am surprised that in a world that requires me to have computer chip verification for a burger and fries still harbors such actions as walking into a Money Mart with some other person's government issued check and walking out WITH THEIR BLOODY MONEY!

So I drew a picture to make me feel better. This is the type of person I currently imagine is enjoying my money. Halfway through it I started to feel sympathy for the poor bastard, maybe he was once a proud man who has lost his way. Perhaps he was once wealthy and is ashamed of what he must now resort to just to buy food. A tragic story of loss and the sacrifice of ethics and morals in exchange for ones own survival...or maybe he's just some asshole with my money.

Kingston Trip Sketches

Hey All

So here are some quick sketches from my trip to Kingston last week.

My stuff (left) and the person across from me (right)


The cover of my current reading at the time
(left; A Long Way Gone by Ishmael Beah. Amazing read)
And an extrapolation of the scenery (right)

The laziest cafe attendant ever, and I use to work at a Starbucks with Leon (aka Shuffles)
(3min on the phone with her back to a costumer... tisk tisk lady)

So yeah, The trip went well considering the circumstances and my time back has been good. I have been able to get some crap in order and my desk all clean and ready to go. I've been sketching some Sci-fi stuff as of late and will post some samples soon. I also just started a little project with Rubicon and it looks like it could provide some fun additions to the portfolio.

Also, I just joined up with Taxi Design portfolios. I will upload a post if there are any changes to the profile.

Until next time
Cheers

Book Launch!

Hello Everyone

Sorry for dropping off the face of the earth this last month but I been having some very Charlie Brown weeks lately. Good news is that I just finished a nice little job and will be getting back to some portfolio work.

Also...

I just noticed that a book I did for Rubicon Publishing back in February is now up on Oxford University Press' website.

You can see some samples on my site in the children's book section of the portfolio.

I am heading to Kingston for a few days to see my folks. Expect some more frequent posts on my return.

Cheers
-Gavin
