I will be speaking at the Powell Street Festival, an annual celebration of Japanese-Canadian culture in Vancouver. 12:30 PM at the Firehall Studio on July 29, Saturday. Unlike the ads say, I will not be doing a reading. I’m sure a live reading of a comic book would be kinda interesting, but I’m not prepared [...]

“Mayo Chiki!” anime used my Simpsons Death Note fanart
Posted in appearances, miscellaneous on July 30, 2011 | 1 Comment »

Pretty bizarre but cool discovery. I never would’ve noticed. I am honoured! Thanks to [...]

It looks sweet! I was chosen to do the art a week before the store opening. I came up with the concept, they picked the characters, and I drew it on the weekend. I’ve never seen such a huge print of my work before. I went with a sketchy style because I knew that if [...]

$1,300 raised for Japan
Posted in articles, charity, news, press on March 17, 2011 |
Thanks to all the people who commissioned me, I’ve raised $1,300 for Japan Society’s Earthquake Relief Fund! I’ve donated the money and I’m getting an official confirmation in two weeks. I will re-open commissions soon, this time for MSF/Doctors Without Borders. Because I received far more commissions than I had estimated, I’m selling this original [...]
