Outsourcing has become a major way to do business in the age of communication. And as Ferris Bueller once said, Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once and a while, you could miss it. What that means for artists, is that it’s actually in our best interest to embrace the idea of outsourcing….
This post is filler. I didn’t know what to write about on Thursday, so I decided to do some research and learn about a Canadian national holiday – Victoria Day. It’s a statutory holiday for us Canucks, but not too many of us know what it’s about. So here is a list of twelve things…
Keeping it brief today friends, it’s May the fourth after all. I’d rather let things go down the way they’re supposed to. And yes, that is a cheesy graphic, but I honestly could not find much better for the joke in the way of license free content. So deal with it. And if you’re…
Today I decided to write a post about birthdays, and because we’re closing in on the end of my birthday month, its more than appropriate. You know what Lesley Gore used to say right? After all, what is the point of a birthday other than to celebrate the anniversary of your date of birth, also known…
I think it’s safe to say that when you really start to watch a lot of films like me (read: five new ones a week), themes show up in patterns, actors run across movies, and tropes abound. This means that when the world is asking for more live action Disney adaptations, we offer you insight into…

It’s been theorized before that all youth are supposed to grow out of adolescent thoughts and enter into the realm of adulthood between eighteen to twenty one years of age, depending where you live in the world. I’m not sure how true that is. And because all great art imitates life in a broad range…
I’ve written about Easter traditions before AND even included some perspective as it relates to the history of the arts… but today I decided to write about Easter as an influencer on life. My life in particular. Because I was born in the spring and Easter is a movable holiday, sometimes it falls before my birthday,…
April is one of my favourite months of the year, for a few reasons. It’s the month I was born, which every other year is the same time as the Easter holidays, and it reminds me of my family. You see, dear readers, when I was growing up, every Easter, my family of six…
Have you ever wanted to visit ancient Egypt? The jungles of the Amazon, maybe? How about the Netherlands or even just heading south of the border to explore more Americana? Well I can tell you that I sure have. As a primarily visual artist, I’m inspired by the world around me. The challenge of course…
