schools out
As if on cue, unseasonable 30 degree heat ushers in summer in Toronto.
Its been a long tough school year, but its done. Time to put it to rest and show some of the results of the sleepless nights
Here is the display i put up for the grad-show*
After our 8 months of planning the show lasted a pitifully short 3 days. I'm currently busy trying to get a gallery to display the collected grad show artwork for a longer run
Because the run of the grad show was so short, the thing i'm most proud of is the our website. We produced it with profits from only one sale and with the help of a very talented designer, Garry Ing. Jessie (my girlfriend), Garry and I worked closely on this and i think it looks great, so check it out

Most of May has seen me trying to find gainful employment while looking for a place to show my art. Weve got another show set for Jetfuel in the works, but other galleries are proving elusive for the time being. In the meanwhile a few of my friends and I displayed at the Toronto Clothing Show, earlier in May.
I've also put together a website.

The title image, "Childsplay" was chosen for publication in CMYK, a design annual set to hit the shelves later this spring
So there it is folks. School has proved to be a highly inefficient and challenging way to produce this body of work, but its there. Ive spent a lot of time and energy on this, and sometimes i wonder - Was it worth it? In the end, I think so
Now to finish my book and get a job!
