The frame game



More recently I've been framing my works. This is a glimpse of what's to come: I just sprayed these both this morning. The blue-purple one is for a group show in June, the yellow one will later have design elements added to it.

Happy Easter/long weekend to you all!

Life Drawing 2013

Here's some of the life drawing I've been doing lately. In Montreal, it's actually possible to go life drawing up to four (possibly more) times per week. (I've only done that once though.) Most of these were drawn at Syn Studio (http://synstudio.ca/) or at the UQAM classes on Sunday. Conte on Kraft paper.

Giclee prints have arrived!

My giclee prints have arrived and are NOW available! Several of them have already been prepaid, the rest are on my online store:
 

http://jonodoironstudio.storenvy.com/collections/101738-prints

They were produced in a very limited run and will not be available again once I run out, so if you'd like one - don't snooze. If you live in Montreal and are willing to prepay, you can make arrangements with me to pick them up and save yourself on shipping.

The prints are:
'The Boastful Ghost' 14"x14" (series of 15 including AP)
'Preschool Shooting' 11"x14" (series of 12 including AP)
'Sad Unicorn' 11"x14" (series of 12 including AP)

Nuit Blanche

I completed this painting for one of the events during the Nuit Blance (http://www.montrealenlumiere.com/nuit-blanche-en/) festival last night. Looking forward to it again next year! (It was for a psychedelic event. It's always a good idea to do your research and learn what your audience will be when you do a live painting.)

I'm calling this piece 'Smurfodelic'. Acrylic and ink on masonite, 24"x30"

Giclee prints - SOON!

Whoo-hoo! The package with the giclee prints I ordered just arrived this morning! Earlier this month, I sent 3 images of mine to an outsourced giclee printer and will be releasing my FIRST EVER signed and numbered limited run of giclee prints very soon! One of the images has NEVER been available as a print before! (Hint: 'Friendly as ....')
