pigeons and cake...




so, a good friend of mine, quebecois storyteller eric gauthier, emailed me the other to say that his book of stories "terre des pigeons" (illustrated by moi) had inspired an entry at the international edible
book festival's
first ever montreal event.

how fudding cool is that?! to be imortalised in pastry. take that world!!! who's got the cake now!!!!!!

eric sent some pictures...

more portfolio...

my wife told me to put some more stuff up...



this was for a local small press book fair. i'm always looking for the slimmest excuse to draw monkeys...



this is actually a pretty funny found image from a friend of mine, who caught her (much unliked) upstairs neighbour doing this. a good indication of the current state of the "new age", i thought...




this one could go in a few different directions. it's either about the state of urban decay, or a modern loss of innocence, or even the rise of asian gangs...

mostly though, it's about my fundamental distrust of pandas...
