I was recently reminded of a project I created for Canadian Health magazine. This work was for a story published in 2000 about the effect of wealth on personal health, and I'm very proud of the concept and styling of these photos. The photographs were taken by Bernard Clark.




Kris and Dee's sophomore album, Bloom, is available for purchase or download here. Artist Connie Morris and I designed this album together using some of the work from a wonderful show she created in 2011. Visit more of her work here!


Survivor is a board game created for Luke's Place, a non-profit based in Durham Region, Ontario. Luke's Place offers support to women by helping them understand the court process, collecting evidence, working with lawyers and offering training and resources on family court advocacy to service providers in Ontario. My friend Pamela Cross, a lawyer and VAW consultant, developed the game to assist her during training sessions by engaging advocates in a variety of case studies. 

I was invited to design the game board and materials, and I was really happy to learn how one goes about creating an attractive large-format board that could be easily folded and transported. It was also great to learn more about how Pam uses teaching tools in her work.

Our May/June issue took home top prize in its field at the Canadian Cover Awards in Toronto on February 27, and our publisher, Greg Keilty won the Newsstand Marketer of the Year prize for his work in making SkyNews a success on the newsstand. Wonderful news!

From Masthead magazine:
SkyNews took home top honours in the Sports and Leisure category, for its May/June 2012 cover. The issue sold 4,800 copies for a 97% increase over the last corresponding edition, and was noteworthy for including a pair of solar eclipse glasses for safe viewing of the the transit of Venus in June. Newsstand sales have risen 43% over the year.

My friend Frank Edwards has published his first e-book, and I designed the cover for him. 

Everest: High Expectations tells the gripping story of two Canadian climbing expeditions that captured the attention of the mountaineering world in 1982 and 1986 — written by two climbers (Pat Morrow and Sharon Wood) who reached Everest’s summit in distinctly different ways.
