Had an urge to do a quick sketch up of Mr. Nowland playing his electronic instruments tonight while working on the Raw Canvas collaboration video. Stay tuned.

Come down to Raw Canvas at 1046 Hamilton St. Yaletown, Vancouver to see me and Mike Nowland freestyle a wall mural. Tom Pettapiece will also be there doing a live music set. The event starts at 7pm this Saturday, April 24th 2010. For more details, please visit raw-canvas.com or call them up at 604-687-1729. Hope to see you all there!

‘Upside Up’ is part of an illustration series called ‘BottleTing’, originally uploaded by Carson Ting.

BottleTing is an experimental glass bottle illustration series that I’ve recently started as a personal side art project. ‘Upside Up’ is the first of the series and it took approximately 3-4 hours including the coating of the base colour.

I had loads of fun working on Jive Talk’s first EP, ‘Welcome to Jiveland’.
Jive Talk is an up and coming band out of Vancouver, B.C. Their sound is a combination of Funk, Rock, Jazz, blues and maybe elements of Punk. Together it will be known as Plasmic Jive.

A wall mural illustration time-lapse video that I did with MIke Nowland of Company Policy was picked up by IdN, International Designers Network for their editorial spread about Hand Drawn Animation. We were ecstatic when the editor called us about doing a story on our wall mural.

’404 Beach’ was a collaborative project by Mike Nowland, Tom Pettapiece and myself, Carson Ting.
