20 Years On the Tools. 20 Years at the Drawing Board.

I spent years working as a plumber in construction, side by side with electricians, carpenters, ironworkers, HVAC techs, and every other trade on the site. I know the culture, the humour, and the daily grind โ€” because I lived it.

For two decades I've been the resident cartoonist at Trade Talk Magazine, the official publication of the BC Building Trades. My cartoons don't just look like they come from the trades โ€” they do.

Now I'm bringing that same insight and craft to trade publications across North America, as a subscription service that delivers professionally drawn, print-ready cartoons every month.
