Emerge is a group of emerging artists, aptly enough, who have been gracious enough to allow me to display with them. There
is some wonderful work on this page, as well as more info about me. Check it out...www.emergeartists.ca
The following sites will show you a world of comics free
from coloured tights, gravity-free breasts and brooding fist-clenchers. Graphic literature is the only popular medium that
is, by large, swallowed by a single genre, and while I won't rant much about it here, the following people and their work
is a shining example of what our medium needs in order to become a thriving art form.
Some of these talents have been inspirations for me, others
are just fun. Be warned, though, some of these are not family friendly and viewing them at work may alert the authorities.
See them, love them, buy their art, asshole.

Music has always played a big role in my work, be it writing
or art. From Radiohead to Dave Brubeck, from Natalie Merchant to G
Love and Special Sauce, from Asian Dub Foundation to Clutch. The list of links
will grow longer, but here are a few gems for now. Look now, look often, your ears will thank you.
And for god's sake, turn that shit up!
