falling down the rabbit hole

i have been falling down the rabbit hole
a lot lately

so much is happening
i don't know where to start

sometimes i feel like white light
is pouring through me
and that is a sharp contrast

to how i felt this time
last year

which is why i want to document it
to remember

that happiness is always on the other side
of despair

ILLUSTRATION of the YEAR

i am humbled and delighted to say
that the illustrations i did for saatchi & saatchi
have been short-listed for illustration of the year
at desktop magazine's create: awards.

i very much look forward to the outcome of this one
and, in the meantime, you can take a closer look at
the work in the june edition of desktop magazine.

many thanks to saatchi & saatchi for being so
damn wonderful to work with.

celebrate

sometimes i like to celebrate
for no apparent reason

celebrate nothing

or everything breathing and moving
around me

sometimes i like to celebrate
by wearing elaborate costumes

sometimes
i like to celebrate by holding you
in a small cup of rainwater
and remembering your reflection

when we were small
we would celebrate

with snowballs or slurpees or
ding dongs

now i celebrate with stronger liquids
but the joy

is just
as complete

magazine illustration

i recently created an illustration for
the wonderful magazine ascent

http://www.ascentmagazine.com/

the article was about star-gazing

and i couldn't imagine a better subject
to draw from

saatchi & saatchi

this is a sketch i did for an upcoming
series of ads for saatchi & saatchi

they were not only lovely people
to collaborate with but the success
of this project will be featured
in an upcoming issue of desktop magazine

http://www.desktopmag.com.au/

the idea was to illustrate daydreaming

imagine me

doing that
