Toronto skyline sketch from Biidaasige Park. Did the ink there and the watercolours later. My new fav spot.

Happy 50th, Book City! I've worked with Book City designing their bags & bookmarks, so when lan & Jessica asked me to do their 50th illustrations I felt so honoured (esp as an ex-bookseller myself). 50 yrs is a long time for any family-run biz, but when it's a bookstore we really gotta celebrate.

Kinda in love with this new condo in Summerhill and the fancy LCBO and trains and the Yonge Street bike lanes

More evidence I will draw literally any view if it has the CN Tower in it

With so many event organizers using Al for their posters, it was great to be asked to illustrate the poster for the Toronto Garlic Festival at Allan Gardens on Sept 27. Would AI have drawn these cute little garlic clove people?!

Crazy how you can walk five minutes off Yonge Street and it looks like this. Ravines truly the Narnia of Toronto.

Love love love the new Biidaasige Park but it’s soooooo Toronto to time the sprinklers for sunset

Lower don trail open again after three years. The newly re-paved section south of Riverdale pedestrian bridge is lovely but north of that to pottery road it’s…exactly the same? Three years 😮‍💨

Was invited to capture in illustrated form the unveiling of Canada Post’s Places of Pride stamps at The 519, which were designed by Kelly Small & illustrated by Tim Singleton. Such a fun project.

Glad to see the federal government step in & stop Ford's island airport expansion but also let's be real-it was the extreme pressure from the public & organizations & politicians that forced their hand. Special shout-out to @normsworld.bsky.social & all his work with NoJetsTO.

Ok we’ve tried the angry “tell it like it is” dude before on council, as mayor, and as premier now. Let’s pls not fall for that old grift again.

It's said if you want to understand a government's priorities, you look at its budget & boy does Ford have his twisted. Wildfire budget numbers from: globalnews.ca/news/1196838...

Why is it that two months of winter feels like two years & two months of summer feels like two weeks? I drew this little to-do list to remind myself to soak it all in while I can. ☀️

Pinnacle playing peek-a-boo with the CN Tower. Weird to see the skyline without it. As we build more “super talls” maybe we should have some protected CN Tower views since it’s such a skyline icon (eg from Riverdale, etc). Already we’ve lost some (between the TD towers).

Trying out video content! Be nice, I threw this together in literally 2 mins. Trying to combat my perfectionism and just throw stuff out there! Wanted to just document our progress on Church Street’s Pedestrianization Pilot thus far!

Pride isn't just one thing. However you celebrate this weekend, I hope it's a good one.
