    About
    I’m a Montréal-based illustrator, artist, and author very into editorial and commercial work, and while the portfolio part of this website may include only a trim two dozen projects, I’ve been part of more than 1000 assignments on five continents since 2002. Other interests: minimalism, maximalism, world and local history, equality, diversity, economics, music, science fiction, historic buildings, pictorial maps, Canadiana, wall art, preserving a 145-year-old home, etc. I’m also a proud member of Illustration Québec, which is a non-profit organization whose mission is to bring together and support illustrators.

    You can think of much of my work as a collage that doesn’t look like a collage—pieces made from real-world lines, shapes, and textures scanned into a computer that’s used as an infinitely-forgiving Xerox machine, glue, and scissors. These “collaged” components lose their recognizability in the process, but through repetitive use bring flaws, eccentricities, and geometries that form a unique visual vocabulary.

  • Ordering Prints
    All screenprints in the shop were printed by Unik with high quality papers and inks, and all other prints are printed in-studio with an Epson T3170 on enhanced matte 192 GSM paper. Prints are shipped weekly and rolled in sturdy double-walled carboard mailers, and sorry—we don’t offer framing. Shipping fees include basic postage and a small amount for packaging and handling, and adding a second (or third) print to your order won’t change the fees. Estimated shipping times are as follows: 2-8 business days within Canada and the United States, 4-8 weeks to Europe, 4-12 weeks to everywhere else.
