Pen and ink illustration, with watercolour.

"I grew up with this man’s voice crooning in my ears as a child, and he’s fed my soul ever 
since. One of my early works when I was still scribbling, experimenting, and trying to find my voice, exploring form and mediums - I was intensely focused on practicing on 
portraiture to hone and re-flex my skills after more than 15 years of being dormant when 
it came to visual art. For this illustration in particular, I was tasked with creating nine 
pieces for a collective art show at the Steamwhistle Brewery in Toronto entitled “Badass 
Canucks” that year, focusing on some of my favourite Canadian media personalities, 
this being just one of them."
