here are some our adventures on the west coast: art we make, people we meet, lands we explore, and dreams in our brains.

Faces of Vancouver
We made these to show some people we don't see very often, the people we see often.

This girl is a street punk with some brown and blue hair and three dreads. She has tons of gnarly tattoos and piercings and owns a brown dog. She panhandles by attaching a string to a stick and a cup to the bottom of the string like a fishing pole. Sometimes she sits on the sidewalk and holds a sign that says "I bet you a dollar you'll read this". I always read it and then feel tricked.

This guy is one of three hundred thousand Italians who lives in the area. At odd hours in the night and early morning, he shuffles to one of the Italian cafes on the drive. He goes there to spit and speak loudly in Italian to other old Italian men, who are also spitting, smoking and speaking over each other. But mostly to watch soccer.

One of the many rich lawyers who likes to think he is a motorcycle rider. Blasting around on his brand new Harley complete with full leathers, skull cap, and a cross bones bandanna. He only rides his bike when it is sunny out and the streets are full of young ladies to impress.

midnight skate sesh



Because the weather has been so nice lately and there are so many radical skateparks in the Vancouver area Aaron and our friend Jordan. E have started skating again. Skateboarding is the perfect sport; it frees the mind and body of every worry. When I am on my board with loose legs and a creative mind I feel refreshed. Im stoked to be skating again.

Reawakening the Fink Within

Nearing the end of this last semester at Emily Carr I was feeling a little down with the projects that I was working on. I needed to do something fun, something that would reawaken my creative spirit, so during one of my super boring lectures I decided to draw this fink. This is a portrait of Norman, the creator of Vancouver's Motorcycho zine; he was pretty stoked to get it in the mail.
