Art is not confined to galleries or bound by rigid interpretation—it moves through streets, public squares, and conversations, finding its audience in the flow of everyday life. It does not judge or take sides but stands as a mirror, reflecting the world in ways only the observer can define. Fate and serendipity weave themselves into the fabric of creation, guiding the brush, shaping the journey, and revealing truths long before they are spoken. To create is not to control but to trust the current, to let the unseen unfold, and to embrace the mystery of what lies just beyond the next bend.

Art Show & Tell, of a Point of Order, add a little ice cream, my just reward. A young woman, lingering with a tattooed crowd in downtown Edmonton near the library, complimented my artwork. After finishing my rapidly melting ice cream in the 24°C heat, I walked over to her gang to show the backside, titled Disorder. Suddenly, a young man lunged at me. "Get the f*** away from here!" he snapped. Before I could react, the group's matriarch—Mama Tattoo—spoke up. "I like your painting," she said, her voice steady. The young man’s demeanor shifted. He looked at the artwork again, his expression softening. "That's an amazing piece of art," he admitted. "You're a super talent!"

Alongside my political cartoons and doodle notes sketched from the public galleries of City Hall and the Alberta Legislature, the additions of Fred Shadows and King Oil & Lube have further shaped my practice of free press. These characters, born from the same irreverent sketchbook energy, often leap from doodles and cartoons into full paintings—ready to be shared through my outdoor public art “show and tell, listen” circuit around Edmonton.


Fred Shadows, crowned with his Union Foraged cap and created over 50 years ago, may well be my alter ego. His roots trace back to several iconic inspirations: Sad Sack, the American comic strip character crafted by Sgt. George Baker during WWII; the British comic strip Andy Capp, by Reg Smythe; and the legendary graffiti "Kilroy was here," scrawled anonymously during wartime. Each of these figures, like King Oil & Lube, and Fred himself, stands as a symbol of resilience, working-class wit, and cheeky commentary—perfectly at home in the margins, and now, center stage in Edmonton’s urban storytelling.
