This picture illustrates an article about the creative lies that children tell. With no words and just one still image, I tried to create a narrative in which a boy, who had broken a flower pot with a soccer ball, is reprehended, and comes up with a fantastic story about a giant octopus to blame it for the accident.

The Ontario Games started in 1970 and have become the largest multi-sport event of the province. The Games provide athletes with development and competitive opportunities that  prepare them for national and international sports competitions. For the 2016 edition, they adapted some pictograms from the Toronto Pan American Games to their corporate colours, and requested a series of original drawings for additional sports. At BT/A Advertising, I was in charge of the new pictograms.  The result, partially shown above, captures the essence of each sport with few lines and vibrant colours.

Isadora is my own beloved daughter. A few months before her arrival, we received family and friends for a baby shower party. To celebrate the special moment and to thank them all, I created a series of custom pocket mirrors to give away as thank you gifts. Besides the layout and illustrations, I took the opportunity to hand draw all the lettering to make it feel more personal and casual. The colour palettes and layouts helped to create fun, colourful and contemporary souvenirs that don’t look overly babyish or girly. The production was beautifully done by Awesome Merchandise.
