Upcoming show

If you're in town next month, please drop in to see the show. I'll be contributing four or five of my movie-themed lino cuts.
There is also an opening at Eastern Edge Gallery on the same day as the Leyton opening, Saturday, May 5th. It will feature artists Elaine Davis (NL) and Kathryn Ruppert-Dazai (ON).

S'more prints

Blind Contour #51 (Hey)

I've already editioned this one, a simple lino-cut. It's actually a dark burgandy colour.


This is a proof of a woodcut/screenprint. The flat orange is the screenprinted part. I made a few changes to the block before I printed some on blue and green backgrounds on Saturday. I think I may print some of the block on white paper in black and/or grey ink also. I kind of just made this one up as I went along, which was weird. The little comic strip folks at the bottom were an addition I made at the end. I think I like it...

P.S. check out my comics here if you have a minute: www.wbaoc.blogspot.com

MIX Magazine call for submissions

Got this e-mail yesterday, sounds pretty neat:

For our upcoming Work Issue, MIX is seeking images of artists' studios. To that end, I'm attaching a Call for Submissions that I hope you'll forward to every artist you can think of!
Thanks so much for your help.

Plug-a-rama

Big-up to Culture Cowboy Craig Francis Power for kindly mentioning our blog in this week's issue of The Scope. Pick up a copy if you're around St. John's. Thanks Craig.

Lookit!

Here's the new painting I'm working on. This is probably around 65% finished. The contrast is off from the camera, but you get the idea. I'm doing a series of landscapes based on Google Earth satellite photography.

Check it :)
