I’m heading out tomorrow to attend the American Illustrator’s annual release party. It’s a killer time, and I’m ecstatic to attend the event after a 3 year absence. The finger food table won’t know what hit it. Once again, [...] Wed, 12 Nov 2008 20:45:05 GMT http://illustrationfriday.com/blog/2008/11/12/off-to-nyc/ 2008-11-12T20:45:05Z http://illustrationfriday.com/blog/2008/11/12/canadian-portrait-gallery/ So, the Canadian National Portrait Gallery has been indefinitely cancelled. Conan O’Brien even mentioned it on his late night show, saying that if we had such a gallery it would be filled with Gretzky portraits. While this made me giggle a little, I am feeling pretty blue that this project got silently scrapped by our current [...] Wed, 12 Nov 2008 17:58:11 GMT http://illustrationfriday.com/blog/2008/11/12/canadian-portrait-gallery/ 2008-11-12T17:58:11Z http://illustrationfriday.com/blog/2008/11/11/an-illustrated-life-the-infomercial/ click HERE to watch a little video about danny gregory’s new book about sketchbooks!

I decided to try out the service with some images from public domain books available on the web to make a variety of acrylic jewelry, [...] Mon, 10 Nov 2008 14:58:49 GMT http://illustrationfriday.com/blog/2008/11/10/ponoko/ 2008-11-10T14:58:49Z http://twitter.com/briannaorg/statuses/997398255 briannaorg: Four-thirty in the morning and It's hailing!!!

I’m doomed!” (Ok, I’m a little melodramatic, I know this.) So in the afternoon, after wallowing around the [...] Thu, 06 Nov 2008 18:21:26 GMT http://illustrationfriday.com/blog/2008/11/06/need-ideas/ 2008-11-06T18:21:26Z http://illustrationfriday.com/blog/2008/11/06/winner/ I’m really excited for our future. Thanks to everyone who bought my stickers, and to everyone who made a difference, no matter who you voted for. Anyone else feel the need to use art to support politics? Never thought I’d be the guy to do it, but looky, seems like I felt the need this time.

As a Canadian, it was wonderful to see our sister nation come together so strongly and exercise the right to vote. I definitely feel a new and fresh energy bubbling amongst Americans. I hope as the months progress through the recession, all of us artists/illustrators can weather the storm, take care [...] Wed, 05 Nov 2008 16:11:47 GMT http://illustrationfriday.com/blog/2008/11/05/democracy-and-love/ 2008-11-05T16:11:47Z http://twitter.com/briannaorg/statuses/991151060 briannaorg: I grew up hearing about the great political moments of the 60s.I am so proud to witness the greatest political moment of my lifetime tonight Wed, 05 Nov 2008 05:30:18 GMT http://twitter.com/briannaorg/statuses/991151060 2008-11-05T05:30:18Z http://twitter.com/briannaorg/statuses/991085608 briannaorg: Hello, Chicago.
