This last weekend I had a table at a local Vancouver market, the Eastside Flea, where I sold some of my classic beloved items such as Beef Buddy cards, prints, and some exclusive copies of TomatoPotato (all of which are available online in my Etsy shop). I would like to say thank you to everyone who came by, told me how cool my stuff was, and supported the Land of Le Beef.
IB Learner Profile Posters
If you're an IB teacher, then these IB learner profile posters will be right up your alley. I made these for my wife's classroom because wanted a fun way to remind her students of these qualities, and because I like drawing animals.
Can I buy these in your Etsy Shop? Sure, if you want. They are available in two sizes as physical prints, or as digital downloads so that you can print them yourself.
Breakfast Cereals
I sometimes look at other cartoons and wonder what they would look like if the Land of Le Beef created them. In keeping with the spirit of curiosity, I present to you some of the most beloved breakfast cereal icons from those days when you used to basically eat a bowl of sugar every morning. I think my favourite used to be Capt'n Crunch, although those Lucky Charms marshmallows were pretty awesome too.

If you look really closely, you'll notice that I forgot to put whiskers on my tiger - major faux pas. You probably didn't notice or care, in which case there was no need for me to point it out. Something else you may not have noticed or cared about, is that fact that there are two different patterns on the zebras' faces - I tried both, promising myself that I would decided which one looked better and then make them the same, but I got so caught up in the process that their differences made it all the way through to the final stage. I kind of like it better this way. Anyway, I'm just babbling now. I'll stop.

Rocky XIII
Of all the tigers I have ever drawn (about 5), this is one of my favourites. This cartoon actually has an interesting* back story. You see, one of my faithful Facebook followers wrote me a message telling me that my cartoons had been haunting her dreams, and she had particularly weird dream with two tigers holding signs - something about 'eye of the tiger' and 'got my eye on you'. Her dream didn't actually make much sense, but I managed to pull it out of the garbage heap, clean it up, and turn it into the greatest Rocky Bolboa cartoon that has ever been made - ever. Thanks Amal for providing the inspiration for this one, and in part making the world a better place.
