I was walking down the street one day and saw someone wearing a The North Face shirt that said Never Stop Exploring but I misread it as Never Stop Exploding and was really confused. However, it also inspired me to make the images above, drawing inspiration from two of the most explode prone Pokémon – Voltorb and Electrode!
Maybe this would look good on a T-shirt or print?
Below is a reference image I used as a base for the concept.
This was a design I made after reading through an Illustrator tutorial by Evert Martin.
I took a tiger as my base (see below). After following the tutorial I came out with the above image. It kind of looks more like a bear to me but I like it anyway. It was a quick production to get the feel for Illustrator more so I didn’t spend time on refining it.
You can create some pretty crazy looking things with Martin’s methods – and quickly too!
This was done during my 4th year at OCAD University. It was for the Graphic Novel course. This assignment was to make a 4 page spread in full colour.

Loneliness was created when I was feeling melancholic and distanced from people. I felt lonely and alone and thought creating a game to express myself might help.
I had originally started the game as a search for collecting friends but they would constantly disappear. When they were all gone, the game would end.
This was the original character design: 
However, I changed the goal and made it a game where you tried to escape from being lonely and alone. Neither game had a win state as I felt nihilistic and wanted people to experience the helplessness I felt.

These are some logos I’ve designed in the past.
Graydon Hall Apartments
This was part of an animation I made that would be shown on their website. The animation was a little trippy and psychadelic but the final logo I feel gives a feeling of peace and comfort.
Shower Tower Logo
The Shower Tower was named O’Natural and looking through old files I found the logo design for it. Luckily 3D modelling this wasn’t a massive pain and required only a few tweeks.
These were done as a series of 3 to practice our understanding design elements. They were all done in 2012 at York University. The elements of design were Texture, Direction, Form, Rhythm, Scale & Space.
Series III focused on using only three elements in each image and showing a contrast.
