100!


Well, it took longer than it should have, but I've finally reached my 100th post here at Nick Soup and I have some new and old work to show to celebrate! Thanks to everyone who's been checking in on the blog over the years, the feedback and critique is always appreciated.

The top pic is another poem written by William Dorman for his kids. These are always fun because I really get to let my imagination run wild and get super cutesy. It took me forever to get the little girl's eyes right, I ended up having to flip the whole pic just to get them aligned correctly.

And who doesn't freaking love drawing dinosaurs!?

These pics are from my Media Exploration class this year, my first real foray into watercolor media. That class was amazing for experimenting with media and letting loose. These were mostly homework assignments, some of them working better than others. It's a long hard road to competence with real media, but I'm enjoying the walk.







This last one is my fave, a real-life scene where me and Natasha got ice cream during a typical Calgary Spring snowfall.

Now let's take a trip down memory lane to my first blog posts, to a time when I liked cartoony violence and yo mom jokes and was obsessed with perfecting things before releasing them to the public. Clearly, not much has changed.

First Post Evah!
