It’s getting too cold to cruise. I’m gonna miss this guy.

Who ever said photos need to be crispy all the time?

I shot these in Lethbridge when I first got my digital SLR. Clearly I was too lazy to use a tripod so I cranked up the ISO and tried standing really still.

Lately I’ve been going through old sketch books trying to figure myself and my art out. Here’s what I came up with.

Dre is so excited for snow that he hasn’t stopped talking about it for the last 2 months. Pretty much as soon as summer (August) was over he’s been in ski mode. I love snow but Dre love LOVES it.

Looking forward to shredding with you this season bro, this one’s for you. (And might as well throw in some Plello stuff while I’m at it.)

Are you excited for snow?

Happy Halloween!

I’m not a huge costume planner or anything like that, so I always find myself at the last minute rushed and struggling to find a costume. What are you dressing up as? Any suggestions for me?

I’ve been staying up late to work on this piece for the last two nights. I’ve been drinking peppermint tea and listening to The Weakerthans, Band of Horses and Radiohead. Nice mellow stuff to keep me going.

I hope you like it.

A memorable morning

[post by Chris]

I got up super early on a Sunday morning in August. I hopped on my bike and went out for a few hours, shooting photos and turning down random streets with no destination in mind. It was nice being out before the city woke up and disturbed the silence.
