While cleaning out my basement, I went through my college portfolios and took photos of my work from that period. Some of it is worth sharing! I am amazed at some of the work I did so long ago. I didn't have much confidence in my ability, but it is clear now that was unfounded! Please question your own personal doubt against the evidence!!

This illustration for "Commercial Art" is now stained, but still shows an eye for composition and colour. It's one of my favourites! It is guache, a difficult, fast drying paint that we learned to master as illustrators in this course at Capilano College in North Vancouver.

Another guache illustration, this of The Lady of Shalott.

More guache, "A Day at the Zoo".

Guache and chalk pastel, illustration from "Dune", one of my favourite series of books.

This is a print made from an etched acrylic sheet. This was during my Fine Arts at Camosun College.

This is a lino print. I had traveled to Tunisia and Algeria and I remembered this image from a building, possibly a Mosque. I still love the colour combination.

This is also an etched acrylic sheet. I was very influenced by Mucha and the Art Nouveau period.

A pencil crayon illustration of a collage, at Capilano College.
