My friend Ellen gave me this book and - despite the fact that I'm just midway through the introduction - I'm here to say that I recommend you read it! 😄 It's giving me a bit of a lift from the AI blues.

I had a great time working with Greg Worsnop again, creating a series of posters that will benefit the Friends of Algonquin Park (FOAP), a non-profit charity that dedicates their resources to develop current and future stewards of Algonquin Park.

It's International Women's Day! Here's my illustration of #SandraDayOConnor in her later years. The first female #SupremeCourt judge, Sandra saw herself as a bridge between the past (protected, submissive women) and the future era of true equality between the sexes. #IWD2025

@charlieangus104.bsky.social This was a random find while working through some sketches today... That flag! Let's combine that heart with a deafening roar and maybe it'll be closer to where we're at.

How exciting to see one of my paintings featured on a wine label!
Tróp, which means « too much » in Occitan, is a natural wine produced by the Mas Tim vineyard (located in Faugeres, France), and the painting featured on the label is a portrait of the vigneron's daughter.

Taking in the news today about Sandra Day O'Connor... I'm about a month and a half into working on a picture book about her with @mollygoldenbooks & @sleepingbearpress
It's been fascinating - the research, thinking about and drawing her on a daily basis. An incredible person and life.
