Totoro Project - Bidding is now ONLINE!

FYI: You can also bid on the art from the Totoro Forest Project ONLINE! Bidding has already started and will end on Midnight 9/5/08. To see the auction items click HERE

Here's direct links if you wanted to bid on any of our pieces.
Enoki Forest Song


Dirty Job


Twins


As a convenience to those who are unable to attend the auction, we do accept absentee bids. This is a silent auction item so, once the absentee bidding period (Now - Midnight, 9/5/08) is over, the winning bid for this lot will set the minimum bid for this lot on the night of the auction. Please note, on the night of the auction, up to 5 silent auction pieces may be chosen as "wild cards" for the live auction. Should this piece be chosen as a wild card, it will NO LONGER be a silent auction item, and the highest bid will become the opening bid in the live auction. If no one at the auction places a higher bid, during either the silent auction OR the live auction, the winning absentee bid becomes the purchaser.

Eye Candy From Strangers

Here's a few more girls I did recently for Alberto Ruiz's "Eye Candy From Strangers" book!

I used a black watercolor pencil, a red/blue pencil and some burnt sienna ink w water.

Just a reminder that SUBWAY SKETCHING is back on this Sunday. Hope to see a lot of you there!

Toronto Fan Expo this weekend and Subway Sketching Postponed.



Hi everyone,

Subway Sketching this Sunday August 24 is postponed because we'll be at the Toronto Fan Expo at the metro convention center. If you're in the Toronto area, come on by. We'll be signing prints and books all weekend at booth A10 in Artist Alley. We'll also be doing free sketches for every purchase.

There's going to be tons of great talent and entertainment there. Just to name a few Jason Seiler, Doug Sneyd, Stephen Silver, Justin Ridge, Alberto Ruiz and Matt Stewart are all going to be sitting in our row.

Here's a few girls I did recently for Alberto Ruiz's "Eye Candy From Strangers" book! Hope to see lots of you this weekend!

Totoro, Pet Monster Sketch and Explosion in Toronto!

Ok... I was a bit slow on putting this up. My apologies... we've been busy. I wanted to let you all know that the tickets were up for sale for the event but they all sold out in the first few days.

TOTORO FOREST PROJECT has a blog!
Click on the image below


Here's a little sketch I did a couple of nights ago. It's an idea for the next book 'Pet Monsters'.


Also, a propane factory blew up a few days ago here in Toronto. The explosion shook my home from miles away.
I didn't film this clip but it looks like the same view I have.


Here's another that someone posted on youtube that's even closer!
