Sans titre

This is a story yet to be written about a majestic tree guardian of all life on a planet inside a binary star system. One of the celestial bodies is a pulsar and the other is a neutron star about which little is known here on earth. The ink is taking a back seat here as the watercolours and colored pencil dominate the composition. However, the fine liners play a crucial role in defining elements that convey the narrative, namely the floating dragon castle. #inktober2018 #inktober #fantasy #binarystar #star #astrophysics #learning #astronomy #floatingcity #watercolor #coloredpencil #seikendesentsu #secretofmana #secretofevermore #nostalgia #mana #tree #treeofmana #landscape #sea #blue #green https://www.instagram.com/p/BotBV8wgc8F/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vehjio85m7qp

#inktober2018 day 7 #exhausted is a #flowofconsciousness about #peakoil which goes to say the Earth itself is exhausted. How can you make great again that which was never truly great? #ironic #climatechange #artengagé #mouvementetudiant https://www.instagram.com/p/BoqYSO3gPQE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dpr1rlkimmqs

Mont réel mirrors the shape of the Mont-Royal in the distance and is a landmark feature to the @virage_campusmil which is fast becoming a bustling hub for all sorts of communities. The wooden structure invites us to casually live outdoor by providing a novel way to invest the space. Inside the structure you can find a shaded place with a faint natural ventilation and at night, a cozy room to practice yoga or hold a meeting. How we share the space peacefully beyond mere tolerance is at the heart of this space surrounded by community gardens. @withdimensions #community #consciencesociale #justice #lateral #architecture #innovation #wayoflife #growth #ensemble #espace #vie #montreal #montreel #pyramide #modedevie #interactions #special https://www.instagram.com/p/BnR80PgFZ-u/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qsyka0sfo2sm

A beautiful world of second hand toys. Live at the Vancouver flea market. They were cold. I cut up one of my sheets in a million pieces And gave the each a tiny blanket. #toys #childhood #play #gijoe #sailormoon #pokemon #geek #videogames #fleamarket #secondhand #environment #ecofriendly #mindyourbusiness #retro #anime #plastic

I made this illustration for a challenge where we had to transform a classic cartoon character. I chose Hades from the animated movie Hercules. #cartoon #villain #hades #comic #illustraition #clipstudiopaint

Levee, my Bae and @main_street_poodle just having laugh and suddenly the worries disappear. #kisses #whatever #leveegram #shitsandgiggles #imetyouatsaveon #boomerang #wtf #animalactivism #liberationanimal

What a night I had for the #eastvanculturecrawl at an unofficial studio! I met so many new people and had an absolute blast! After that I went to the #vancouvercomicjam it finished it all off on the dance floor of Open Sudio. Now that's a Saturday night to write home about. #party #artjam #gypsy #comics #connexions

A small format made specifically to inspire my West End #communitycentre students. It took me a couple hours to make from imagination. #dawn #wildbc #wildsalmon #nativevalues #originallyorganic #watercolor #beauxarts #nature #naturerules

This impressive exhibition called Field Guides is currently at the Roundhouse and I am very inspired to take my group to it this Friday for our first class of the fall season. #readymade #junk #community #edeavour #inspired #ideas #stilllife #colorblast #finearts @roundhousecc #firstclass

J'ai été chanceux de partager mon enfance avec un frère à aimer et avec qui partager mon apprentissage du monde. On a décidément toujours été là l'un pour l'autre. On ne se lassait pas de jouer ensemble. Tout n'était pas parfait mais mes souvenirs, je ne les échangeraient pour rien au monde. #famille #freres #souvenirsdenfance

I don't know about you but I'm getting a Grass-Valley (California) vibe from this piece by Derya Akay who considers his #insitu work to serve both as art and as an actual place of community. I love how accessible it is because it states that crafts can be on the same level as fine-art. Not as the patriarcal ready-made of Duchamps or Warhol coming from an era where the #discourse has embraced #intersectionality #philosophy #feminism #finearts @vanartgallery #californiavibe

I'm not going to lie, this #galaxy painting looks better with digital enhancement. The most important thing is: it was a pleasurable experience to make it. I hope you like it! #watercolor #aquarelle #astral #cosmos #hubble #stars #beautifulnightsky #nappleyellow

An fascinating perspective by Derya Akay and her free-flowing de-constructed notion of space as a catalyst for encounter and #humaninteraction #newtake #longingwoman #art #reuse #recycler #textile #quilt #castshadow #form #freestanding #contemporary (at Vancouver Art Gallery)

Susan Point's exhibition @vanartgallery was very interesting. I loved to see a modern take on traditional art as well as how new materials can be integrated seamlessly to our #nativeamerican culture. The whole thing was really like a journey back to our origins. #finearts #rondebosse #culture #anthropology #roots #spiritual #mandala #spindle #craftmanship (at Vancouver Art Gallery)

I love modelling for art classes and I am told I am very good at it so of course it is a joy to obtain a #gig @universityofbc This is me getting ready to strike a pose in my birthday suit representing for the #lgbt community #art #fine art #drawing #lifedrawing #lifemodel #malefigure #anatomy #work #werk #queer #shantayyoustay #fierce

Me and my wonderful #sketchinganddrawing group from @roundhousecc who are adventurous and love drawing in the exhibition hall which allows them to take full advantage of this bustling #venue This particular exhibition is for the talking stick festival and this work is called freedom flag by Richard Heikkila-Sawen. #lgbt #rainbowflag #bisonpelt #interactive #colorpop #groupshot #drawingclass #nativeland #aboriginal #modern #friendship
