Our CITI/SEEN mural now has an Augmented Reality

Our CITI/SEEN mural now has an Augmented Reality function. You can see it in action in this video by @seankaremaker who led the team of artists on the mural and worked on the AR with @lookaheadlabs. The typeface used in the AR is by @micas77. The other artists who worked on the mural were myself, @itsadona, @amaranthine and @jayrettich. To learn more about the mural project, check out the video (filmed by @joseph_bronson) just released on @thereachgallery social media and check out some of my previous posts.

He was a good friend of mine and he lost his life on September 1st, 2020... In my first semester back in 2017 I was given an assignment to do 5 illustrations to dedicate to whomever I chose. I chose to dedicate one (the leaf) to our nature loving, big hearted @brookmorrison and he was pretty stoked about that.

The second image is a watercolour painting by the man himself that he gave to me in 2017. He really was a man of many talents. He was a huge Bob Ross fan and loved to paint beautiful landscapes (probably not as much as he loved to explore them). He really appreciated all things beautiful and I will cherish this painting and his memory.

Brook my man, I hope you're enjoying the views from up there. You touched many lives and you had so much more life to live. You're going to be missed by so many people. Love ya fam

This weekend I had the opportunity to participate in the Vedder River Art Walk! It was a wonderful event and I had such a great time. Thank you so much to the @chilliwackartscouncil and @chilliwackchamber for having me as one of the artists. And thank you for all the effort put into planning this event, the support from the @chilliwackcity, the @chilliwackeconomicrecovery and the rad volunteers. It was so awesome to see the community appreciating all types of artwork and enjoying a fun social distancing event during these trying times. The opening ceremony was beautiful and I'm so grateful to everyone who made this a successful event. I'm really proud of this extremely large piece that I started just four days before this event. I have a few more finishing details to add before I can share the final piece, so stay posted, there may be some exciting plans for it in the future.

I have a vinyl mural in @downtownchilliwack! My piece is a part of the @chilliwackmuralfestival. @harvestonmill provided the space, it was installed by @kineticsignschwk and was funded by @promontoryhomesforsale. So thankful to @stolo.community.futures and @ajaxmalone at @zebookman for helping make this happen. If you're in the area check out all the amazing new art!

This was the colouring page for the month of July on my Patreon and I wanted to add some of my own colour to it. On Patreon I upload my sketches and works in progress as well as all my finished work before I post it anywhere else! This month's colouring page hasn't been made yet but suggestions are welcome. Right now I have some inside looks on a few projects posted! Link in bio :)
