About Me

My photo
I have been a Freelance Artist since 2006. I'm married with two wonderful children and live in Maple Ridge, British Columbia. I primarily work in book and magazine publishing. I have illustrated four books so far, "Maple Leaf Forever?" (2008 - Author Paul Keery) and "R.B. Bennett: The Grinch Who Gave Away a Million" (2008 -Author Alan Skeoch, unpublished). Both for Jackfruit Press. In 2012 "Canada at War: A Graphic History of World War Two" was published by Douglas & McIntyre. This was my first graphic novel based on an earlier concept of mine and written by Paul Keery. It was critically praised in Canada and the US, became a CBA best seller and went into 2nd printing. My fourth book "The Night Wanderer", a GN adaptation of the novel by Drew Taylor was released in August 2013. My work has also been published in Kayak and Legion Magazines. My caricatures and stock art are available at artizans.com

Twigs

"Twigs" was a comic strip I developed in the mid '90's. At the time my dream was to become a syndicated cartoonist. I idolized people like Bill Watterson (Calvin & Hobbes), Berkely Breathed (Bloom County) and Gary Larson (The Far Side) but I'm not much of a writer and a bit of a perfectionist, so I laboured on Twigs for a few years and never bothered to send it out. Several years ago I decided to colour some of my Sunday strips and put them out on the web. I've given them a home here. I figure they deserve a bit of exposure.
