JAN 2008 - NOV 2009

This sketchbook is a celebration of art and life.  As an artist, my photographs are intertwined with my mixed media paintings, illustrations and collages. Themes explored in this volume include Vancouver Pride, gay life and culture, current events, pop culture, nightlife, clubbing,  LGBTQ+ life and queer culture, and drag queens.  

The global politics of the time are artistically explored frequently in this book. The global War on Terror, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, consumerism, terrorism, the industrial military complex, surveillance, corruption and oppression are explored in depth through mixed media  acrylic, ink and watercolour illustrations.

I hope that this sketchbook can inspire others with their scrapbooking ideas.
