I Blame the Kittens
Oh, hi! It’s been a while. A really long while. I’m kind of staring at the screen wondering what to say; wondering if anyone’s still out there after all this […]
Studio Journal 4: Archaeology of Flat Surfaces
Every room tells a story. A room full of stuff tells even more stories, if you can focus on each bit and its interrelationship to other bits. Which is a […]
The Measure of an Artist
Happy New Year! Here’s this bright shiny year, as full of promise as an blank sheet of paper, and maybe as scary too, for the same reasons. Thankfully, we all […]
The Cats of Yule
That has kind of a nice ring, eh? “The Cats of Yule” — I think it should be a song, or maybe the name for an Irish-style fiddle tune! I’ve […]
A Quadra Cats Hallowe’en
I’ve been so busy with Inktober, and it’s all been Quadra Cats — inking the comic pages and doing the little drawings of interplanetary felines. So I haven’t had time […]
Inktober, Part 2
It’s time to share some more Inktober drawings! At halfway through the month, I’ve been flagging a bit, trying to keep up with all my other drawing work, in addition […]
Inktober 2017: Week 1
I’ve been thinking about seasons and cycles lately; not only the natural ones, but personal and cultural ones. I have noticed that one of my sets of seasons consists of […]
The Feline Federation
Did I mention that the Quadra Cats have returned from their summer vacation, too? No I did not! Here’s the cover to book 3, The Feline Federation, now up on […]
Quadra Cats Colouring Page!
I’m packing for the beach — artists need vacations too, but for some reason we always seem to pack our art supplies — and all week I’ve been ticking off […]
Books, Postcards, and Comics Festivals
Today I went and picked up 100 shiny new copies of “Spaced Out”, the new Quadra Cats book! They look fabulous — 24 nice thick pages with a semi-gloss cover […]
Spaced Out — The Quadra Cats!
It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything here, and that is because I’ve been working away in my Art Cave to bring a new book into being! The Quadra […]
A Mazing Time
Another year is on the wane, winking out like the stars in the morning. 2015, as with all years, has had its own distinctive personality, with quirks and vices and virtues. […]
Mistaken Identity — Quadra Cats
It’s time for another Quadra Cats cartoon. I do these quarterly for the local neighbourhood newspaper, the Hillside-Quadra Community News. These little one-pagers are a lot of fun, and I’m thinking […]
Cats & Pumpkins
Here’s the new Halloween cover photo for my Facebook and twitter pages — thought I’d continue with the black cat theme I’ve been doing for Inktober. I’ve been languishing lately over […]
Of Cats, Gardens, and Diets
It’s been a while since I posted anything at all, and what better to jump back in with than a Quadra Cats cartoon? I’ll make a longer post soon and […]
Browsing the Blogs — Cat Deficit Alert!
Tonight I finally got a chance to sit down and look at the blogs I’m following for the first time in a week — some fantastic stuff you’re doing, folks! I only […]
Book Covers — Kitties and Yetis and Vampires, Oh My!
I’ve been doing book covers for my friend Elizabeth Ann Scarborough now for something like half a decade, and the count is up to 18, with two in progress. I”m […]
