I really enjoy how I developed myself in my illustration style. I loved how I used to draw with gradients and triangles in illustrator but as much as I changed, my illustrations did too.. and that’s a good thing. Even a master chef practices one thing a million times before its perfect.

I’m very happy with the outcome of Melanie’s request when she entered the Canvas Give Away. I know that Melanie has followed me for years (yes, I pay attention to people who like and comment BUT also to those who don’t and always watch my story). But I wanted to give her this piece as she has seen me grow and seen my work from the beginning and always supported.. no matter how many times I changed it.

She has several favourites but I kept waiting for that model I didn’t illustrate before. For me it’s also a challenge to draw something I wouldn’t have thought of myself. Then suddenly she commented the Nike Element React 87 Sail Light Bone.

Thank you Melanie for always supporting me and trusting me in my work. I hope you’ll enjoy your canvas. Also, this is for my Canadian followers! I finally found a printshop in Canada! Which means shipping won’t take as long anymore since I can send it directly from the shop to you in Canada! Huraaaaaay!

And today at 9pm I will have another Canvas Give Away!
