A Bit of Summer

enjoying the last bit of summer,

New Drawings

Have been doing some experiments over the summer, so I thought that I'd share some with you. I just can't get enough of these colors. I may turn these into a zine for Canzine, an annual event in Toronto for local artists and makers.

Here's the date and location info. if you're interested.
Sunday, October 23
Toronto – 918 Bathurst Centre
918 Bathurst St. @ 1 – 7 pm

It would be great if you could come by and say hi!, pick up a few free stickers and be sandwiched between lovely people. :)

worlds,

So apparently I also write, much thanks to an awesome creative writing class that I had the opportunity in taking over the summer. Something small for you to spare a minute to.

......

the nights that i cannot sleep, i spend thinking homes that i’ve never lived in, places i’ve never been to, and lovers that i forgot to love deeply.

i can sometimes feel the warm breeze from these worlds, throwing back my hair into gentle knots. and the faint smell of cut bread waiting on someone’s dining table - it’s mild sweetness knocking me to my knees.

no, this isn’t desire at all. it is something that comes naturally, without control, stripped of all reasons, of all expectations.

during these times, i let things unfold as they are supposed to. these are times at their purest.
