Very much enjoying my illustrating gig for The National. Have to convey rather heady ideas in tiny black and white spots. My editor particularly liked this one about the demise of Lehman Bros. The excerpt came from this intriguing article about the family itself.

Fall Preview
Happy August! Busy summer has precluded me from updating. Herewith, a cursory rundown of what's going on:
• Our movie premiere in Toronto on August 27th! Come!
Brains, Meet Beauty
Got to illustrate a good piece by the Post's Nathalie Atkinson on reconciling oneself to the stereotypes of the fashion profession, and feeling defensive when it comes to smarts.
Everything Must Go Sale!
We're renovating! The Portrait Gallery will be repaired and reno'd this summer, which means no room at the art inn. 200+ mini portraits of notable Torontonians (like you!), Twitter paintings, furniture and other stuff for free or cheap.

Portrait Project
I'll be doing one portrait a day until I can't do one portrait a day anymore. Not allowed to spend more than an hour on each one.

This is my catch-all site - art projects, journalism, weird experiments, all founded in the general belief that irony is not dead, regardless of what Graydon Carter says.
A joint blog where me and the Mr. post our thoughts on fashion and design, and I chronicle my year of not shopping. (I've cheated once.)
The Portrait Gallery
The government has been all kinds of annoying when it comes to creating a respectable National Portrait Gallery of Canada. So we built one in our garage this summer!
