Tove Jansson is someone I would have loved to meet. She died in 2001. Too bad! Too bad! But we will always have the Mumin Family. These Photos are from Jansson's life. Beautiful no?

I am now also teaching a class on Illustration for the Continuing Education Department at Emily Carr University of Art and Design in Vancouver. This blog also serves as a supplement for this class and to post Homework assignments. Here's to hoping you will get as much out of it as I will. Enjoy.
