2009, we hardly knew you....

Ah - the new year.
I think 2010 will be a good one. Here's some roughs for my new illustration class...

And some stuff I've been playing with lately. I've been attempting to tackle the challenge of digital inking - or at least attempting to do so - and a little bit of inkwash doodling to make sure I still got it.

Not much in the way of comics, but here's some stuff I've been doing at school this year - and this is what I've been drawing for fun.

And a goody/oldy from last year - one of my very first drawings using inkwash.

Comix and Stories! British Dinosaurs!

Hey everyone! Two cool things on the horizon!

FIRST! If you're on the west coast of Canada and near Vancouver for the 23rd of August, PLEASE stop by Heritage Hall for "Comix and Stories"! It'll be good, I think - everyone from Kate Beaton to Brandon Graham will be hangin' out there!

SECOND!

Remember that collaboration I've been talking shit about? No?
Well, the fruits of this collaboration (paintings being made by myself and Nemo Ramjet) will be on display at the University of Surrey as part of the British Science Festival! THAT'S RIGHT!
Here's the blurb from the program:
What if dinosaurs hadn't died out but evolved into an intelligent species? Artists C. M. Koseman & Simon Roy imagine how such creatures and their worlds might have looked. This startling and playful exhibition and children’s workshop makes us question our unspoken assumptions underlying previous images of dinosaurs and our own notions of what it means to be human.
Pretty cool, eh? (It'll be open from the beginning of the festival until the tenth of september). So if you're in the UK or in Vancouver at all over the next little while, either come get a book signed or go admire some feathery dinosaurs.

Signing!

JAH Signing Poster -final
Yesterday, I was on CFAX 1070 (an AM radio station in Victoria) with Gareth Gaudin of Legends comics, talking about comics, the comic industry, watchmen, and stuff like that. You should really check out Legends this coming saturday - I'll be doing a signing there.

Fun with the bird-men!

Bronze Age- North Caucasus
These are three dinosauroid illustrations I've just been doing for fun. They might end up being part of a set of pieces, each showing a different stage of technological development. 
Neolithic- Eurasian Steppe
They've been a lot of fun so far...
Mesolithic - Eastern Asia

PRESS!

flores redesign
Also, stegodons aside, over the past little while I've been doing some interviews with Victoria's finest. A local author and comic-book lover by the name of Troy Wilson has been incredible in helping me get some local press. I did an interview with ShawTV (which will be playing tonight at six o'clock) and on the seventeenth, I did an interview on CBC One in Victoria. Once I can, I'll set up links to 'em...
