House in Kudamatsu

I did this drawing one morning when I woke up way too early. It is the house across the street. Most of the houses in the neighborhood have this similar style.



My laptop is crap and I cant install my scanner, so this is a photo of the drawing.

If writing "To Do" lists counts as drawing, then Ive been doing a lot of drawing the last few days. I leave for Japan Tuesday and Ive already started a new blog about the adventure, Alone in Kudamatsu. I wouldnt visit it yet, though. It's kinda depressing and stressful right now.

I busted out the ol' inks and watercolour for this drawing of Patrick. And he busted... nevermind.

The proposal.

I finished the mural in Montreal last Tuesday. Click here to read the article in the Mirror about the eco-fair I participated in.

It is supposed to be a cross-sectional landscape. Apparently it looked too much like a page out of a coloring book for some of the neighbors. That was encouraging news to hear at the beginning of day three. I dont know what I think about it. The owner of the building had all these contradicting demands. Id like to think without that Id have done something better. Maybe not.

After a month of slaving away drawing your portraits, I won the Portrait Party contest! Now Rama Hughes and I will do a swap. I'm wicked pumped!



This swap was between me and an old middle school friend, James Vaucher.

Emily Haines

Jeannette Langmead Illustration Sketchblog Emily Haines

A drawing I did for daytrotter.com. It's for an article about Emily Haines (of Metric and Broken Social Scene). You cant really see the color I intended if you're not using a really dark and broken monitor. That sucks.

Thanks for the tip, D!
