I had the pleasure to work with Publicis on behalf of Rogers launching the “Express Yourself” campaign for the Nokia 920 line of coloured smartphones.
My job was to design and paint an 18’x12′ canvas (in one take in front of the cameras), using the four colours provided (Red, Yellow, Black & White) of which the Nokia 920 was being offered only through Rogers.
This had to be one of the coolest gigs I’ve done to date. With film crew on set, there were four cameras focused in me & my work (two stop motion & two live action cameras floating around, picking up details & close ups).
The final edited video turned out killer!
Very hard working crews on this set… Great people all around!
After having my work published in the March 2012 issue of Chatelaine Magazine, I received a phone call from a client interested in having her old family furniture painted for her young daughter’s room. I jumped at the opportunity to paint these beautiful pieces.
Why leave the back panel unfinished like most do?
Primed, Aluminium Tremclad™ and spray paint.
Double wide dresser, beautiful hardware.
Double wide dresser-rear.

This is the completed piece.
Canvas and mural combined. Killer concept.
The I.T. department requested the number 127.0.0.1 be added (“localhost” or “home”).
I blew right through the glass wall into the adjacent room.

I enjoy how the graphic work tends to hide the architectural elements of the actual structure.

Spray paint with a touch of paint marker.
Key detail.
A friend asked me “Where are the Dudeman skulls going?” I told him that “this was not that type of client and that there is a time and a place” …however, by the time 3:30am rolled around -the paint markers started to fly.
Open the door and it’s a bar inside!
The finished piece, once all the elements were put into place, turned out to be an exceptionally well configured scenario.
Open the drawer -this houses the wine bottles.
Oh, did you spot the added detail of the hot pink drawer lip?
I started this project by painting an internal wall on the third floor, followed by seventy feet of the same graphic for five third floor displays, then I painted twelve canvases which were on display on the main floor in the “Accessories” department as well as the two display windows down on the concourse level. Next up were the two main floor alcoves, which are located either side of the store towards the back, all the above mentioned work was done during six weeknight evenings and over two weekends. The windows, I only had one week to complete these, so I did one each night, first two were the big ones, forty feet across (either side of the front main doors, working my way across to the West, towards Bay Street.
