FAVORITES

Recently I was sent an email out of the blue by a lovely chap called Derya who works for Woo Magazine. He said that he was putting on a n exhibition in an office / gallery in Emily Carr University, Vancouver, Canada comprising purely of a work found through Flickr favourites, and that he wanted permission to use one of my illustrations in the show. I happily, but cautiously obliged. One and a half weeks later, and I'm sitting here looking at my work in a gallery, without having lifted a finger, and a catalogue on its way to me via airmail. Life is sweet. Here's the press release, and you can peruse in greater detail on WOOMAGAZINE
