I think by now most of you have heard that Michael Turner passed away this weekend. The sadness could be felt though out the convention in Chicago from all his friends and fans. Along with the sadness, the love for Mike could also be felt and so many came out to show how much they cared.

I only really got to know Mike these past three years, but I have always been a fan of his work. Every convention that Francis and I attended, I looked forward to spending time with Mike and everyone at Aspen. I remember three years ago I made a little evilrabbit statues which I gave to the guys at Aspen. Mike really loved his and he told me that he displayed it in his house, which made me really happy. Mike was also my number one sticker fan. Every convention when he saw me hanging out at Aspen he asked me if I made any new stickers and I made sure to never disappoint. He was such a sweet guy, always took the time to talk to me and catch up on things. He would never let you know anything was wrong. Always had a smile on his face. I am so happy that I got to call him a friend.

Mike’s spirit will always live on in all of us. He was one of the most wonderful people I ever met and also one of the most talented.

Mike, you will always be remembered!

Hey everyone,

I have been super busy lately and with Chicago this weekend my level of being busy just doubled. I am currently working on two projects in addition to getting some new items out for the convention season.

I mentioned before how I am working with Franco on a project. Its called Peach and the Isle of Monsters and I will have some original art with me at Chicago to promote the book since it is so close to being done now! I am also working on a children’s book with an awesome local writer by the name of Howard Wong on a project called Polar Bear Princess. It is looking awesome! In addition to this I am trying to start on a super cute web comic…its coming along.

Now here is some Chicago news.

My booth number is 4908 and I will be there with Francis Manapul.

I am also doing WOMEN IN COMICS PANEL with some amazing women in comics and here is some info about that:

I love animals, and some of the animals I truly adore live in the arctic. Its really sad home the ice all these animals live on is melting and because of this their home is vanishing. That is why my boyfriend and I always try our best to help the environment the best we can. We are not perfect, but we try our best I think if everyone just tries to help it would make the world a better place.

Why not meet the dinos?

Here are some super cute baby dinos just looking for some new friends

Well…one dino, but that does not matter since they are all just so cute. Enjoy

What super? These babies are! They are the super minnies!

Enjoy

Oh and there are more to come!

I finally made a sketchbook! It is fullcolour and 36 pages of all wonderful pieces. It was really hard picking the pieces to go into the book, but I think the ones I picked are totally awesome. Sketchbooks are available at any convention that I am attending or as a mail out. There is also a space on the back of the sketchbook to get a full coloured sketch! The piece of this book is $15 without a coloured sketch on the back or $30 with a full colour sketch.

Franco from Blindwolf Studios got excited seeing Francis’ (I guess mine too since we live together hehe)studio tour so he linked it to the blindwolf site. He is such an awesome guy! And awesome writer! I should know since I’m currently working with him on our own project to be published though Blindwolf studios! If you are not sure what Franco worked on read more about his work on Patrick the Werewolf Boy (A title I am in love with!!) and Tiny Titans (Coming out soon!) …also so much more work by going to the link above.

Oh also for this year stay tuned for the newest issue of Ed the Sock’s comic title Ed and Red’s Comic Strip for some cuteness! Liana wrote a super awesome short story that I illustrated for the book.

Also issues 1 and 2 for Black Bastard are done! Issue 1 is now coloured and Issue two will be coloured shortly. Stay tuned for the books this summer

The Studio Tour:
Comic book resources was sweet enough to ask Francis’ to do a studio tour of our happy little home and here it is for everyone to check out. So enjoy and tell me what you think!

I am a huge fan of the Teen Titans Year 1 series out from DC comics. I was inspired by it to draw this

Enjoy

Working on it I don’t update a lot, but I did update my blog a lot. So now my main site is a blog…which needs a lot of work. but at least you can see all the new work as it comes in!

Here is a piece I did for a school project. It was a heading for a section in a magazine. I wanted to do a city piece and I focused in on Starbucks in Toronto, Ontario. The nice thing that Starbucks is going for dog owners is having a dog shaped stand right outside to tie your dog up when you go in. I thought this was wonderful because its always a problem tying my dog up places when I want to quickly run in and grab something. So here is my dog sharing a coffee with the doggy stand. I bet they are having a nice conversation.
