CHEFABLES ILLUSTRATIONS

Recently just wrapped up a couple full page ( 9 x 12) illustrations for a hardcover book full of short educational "fables" about nutrition for elementary school children. The short tale I illustrated was called "The Rule Of Thumb" and the main characters are John Thumb and his evil brother - hence the reason they have large Tom Robbins-esque thumbs. ;)

HOLLERADO/PARLOVR/THE HOOF AND THE HEEL POSTER

It's our last show of the year and then I'm off to the states for a bit the week after that, so come on out and say HI/BYE until 2011!

I'm excited about this show, Parlovr is one of my favorite Montreal bands and so many times they have a show, we're usually playing one too. I love it when we can play with bands we wanna see. Bonus! :)

MATT AND KIM POSTER!

Poster for a Matt and Kim show!

This year I've had a thing for ghosts and hovering eyeballs that I toss into my drawings, which is sorta Halloweeny and almost seems fitting for the date of the show, but, I didn't want to go Halloween-themed, which is why I offset it with lighter subjects and colors. I don't know where this floating eyeball affinity came from but it kind of reminds me of this Japanese cartoon character that is an eyeball. One aspect of all of my illustrations and posters is characterizing inanimate objects and then have them interact with one another usually through their observations of one another, or looking up to the sky, which, I feel like gives the image depth. What are these characters thinking about? What could a scoop of ice cream possibly be thinking about? Or a bowl be reading with such seriousness? Funny. I think it's more of an observation of humans. We manage to stress out about everything, but, what you would do if a scoop of ice cream started stressing out? You'd probably laugh at it and tell it to chill out, literally. ;)

IndyKids Centerspread

Lately I've been doing the center spreads for a free NYC children's newspaper called IndyKids. This piece is about children with disabilities and how they are able to do a lot of things despite their disability. Below that is another spot illo for the same page.

In other news: I'm back from tour with my band! It was so much fun. I didn't have a computer for almost 2 weeks or internet ( sometimes I got to check my email on an iphone). I planned on drawing on the off time but it was back to back shows and driving place to place, so, no time! But, I'll post up some recent doodles tomorrow from my post-tour chillout time here in Vermont. Today we went to a swimming hole and drove through the beautiful country-side and I made a lil' comic about it. Sooooooooooooo nice.

More stuff later!

Love!

Cheesefly

I've been on the road or the recording studio or busy working on projects for a while so this is the first time I've had a chance to just sit down and draw just for the sake of drawing. I've gotta do more of it! I forget how many tiny stories begin this way. Like this one.... :)

Once upon a time I was sitting on a mushroom when I decided to grab a Cheesefly and bite it. It tasted pretty good so I've been biting them ever since. The End.

Love, C

SILLY KISSERS POSTER AND MORE!
