<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Josefin Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">Happy New Year everyone! I hope you've all said your farewells to our dearest 2012, and are now taking the time to make 2013 feel right at home. I had a lot to be grateful for last year. <b><i>A lot</i></b>. This year seems to be shaping up as well. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Josefin Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">I'm really happy to have two illustrations in the Jan/Feb issue of Canadian Wildlife Magazine (<i>Biosphère en français</i>). The article is about a new study that indicates that animals may have a more developed sense of self consciousness that we'd initially assumed, perhaps not to the same degree of self-awareness that we possess, but similarly. It also discusses the possibilities of what this could mean for the human-animal relationship in the future. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Josefin Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Josefin Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">The book also has beautiful works from my fellow canucks <i>(who are equally beautiful)</i> Pete Ryan and Jacqui Oakley.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Josefin Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">Many many thanks to AD Steve Balaban for the opportunity!</span></div>

<br />
Tonight is the launch event for <a href="http://garrisoncreekbats.com"><b>Garrison Creek Bat Company</b></a> - a Toronto based company, founded by three friends of mine (<a href="http://www.thestar.com/news/article/1162047--toronto-made-bats-commemorate-city-parks">who you may have heard of</a>), that deals in beautifully hand-crafted baseball bats. To celebrate the launch of their company and to showcase the first model - The Bellwoods Bat - they've invited 17 artists to custom paint bats for the exhibit, which opens tonight at <b>AWOL gallery</b> - <b>76 Ossington Avenue</b>. You can visit their website to find the full roster of artists, as well as their contact info for any purchase inquiries. <br />
<br />
Here are some photos of the bat I painted. I'm so happy to be apart of this show - namely, for the opportunity to show in the city I love, and along side some of my favourite artists. From what I've seen everyone really hit it out of the park!! ...also, the baseball puns. MY GOD the baseball puns! <br />
<br />
If you're in Toronto tonight, the opening reception starts at <b>7pm</b>, you should step up to plate and head on over, grab a drink and say hi! Maybe talk about the Blue Jays?<br />
<br />
And in case you're worried about walking down the street looking like an extra from the Warriors, Garrison Creek Bat Co offers these gorgeous handmade bat bags made by <a href="http://shipislandleather.tumblr.com/#me">Robin Akitt</a>. Head on over to her site to see the bags as well as all the other amazing things she produces. <br />
<br />
<i><br />
Also, in other news - this is the last week to see Finding Together Again @ Spoke Art Gallery in San Francisco. If you haven't had a chance to stop by, these are the last days, the show will be up until the 28th. </i><br />

I'm always a little thrown off by the rhythms of travel, I can't seem to get a handle on it. I'm all caught up now, and I would like to say thanks.<br />
<br />
The opening was wonderful. It was such a pleasure to speak to everyone who stopped by and chat with all the local patrons and artists (and see soo many people take home a <a href="http://store.spoke-art.com/product/nimit-malavia-remus-and-romulus-print"><i>'Remus and Romulus' print</i></a>! The reproduction is uncanny, I was so pleased to see so many people as enthused about it as I was.) If you have photos from the opening, I'd love to see them, please feel free to tag me in them, or send me a link.<br />
<br />
It was especially great to finally meet and spend some time with a few 'online- friends' in person. The west coast was working really hard that night to earn its title, <i>"best coast"</i>. <br />
<br />
My friends and online followers, who could not make it person. Thank you so much for sending your personal messages, posting and sharing the work and news of the show through out the interwebs. Your good vibes and wishes were really felt that night, and all through out my trip down.<br />
<br />
Ken, Sarah, Jessica, Shaun and my family, could not have been possible without your hard work and support. <br />
<br />
To all my new collectors and patrons, I've had a chance to speak to many of you already, but I would like to say thank you again. I make the images for myself, but it's your enthusiasm and passion for the work that let's me continue to do so. <br />
<br />
And of course, I cannot even begin to express my thanks to all the sites and blogs who posted about the show, I must give particular mention to <a href="http://arrestedmotion.com/2012/04/openings-nimit-malavia-finding-together-again-spoke-art/">Arrested Motion</a>, <a href="http://www.creepmachine.com/events/review-finding-together-again-by-nimit-malavia-spoke-art.html">Creepmachine</a>, <a href="http://www.hifructose.com/index.php/the-blog/2194-nimit-malavias-finding-together-again">Hi-Fructose</a>, and <a href="http://www.juxtapoz.com/Illustration/the-illustrations-of-nimit-malavia">Juxtapoz</a> for all the great press. <br />
<br />
The rest of my trip down towards LA was just a dream. Much needed reunions with old friends, great times with new ones and my continued love affair with So Cal cuisine. <br />
<br />
If you haven't had a chance to see the show, and you're going to be in the San Francisco area, the show will be up in the gallery until the 28th. You can see all the work from the show <a href="http://www.spoke-art.com/">online</a> as well. <br />
<br />
The people of San Francisco and the city itself have found a warm place in my heart (along side the rest of California), I hope to see you again soon.<br />

It's that time of year folks, the birds are singing, the sun is shining, and kids are ready to d-d-d-d-d-d-duuuel! (....I was more of a Metabots kind of guy to be honest)<br />
<a href="http://www.fanexpocanada.com/"><br />
FANEXPO IS HERE</a>!!! The Con opens tomorrow and runs for the next 4 days (August 25th-28th). This is my first year being seating in the professional section, which is very exciting! My table number is <b>P004-B</b>. I'll be doing sketches, ink drawings, and painting commissions all weekend, plus I'll have some new giclee prints, sketches, zines, buttons and more available. I will also be keeping very good company with the likes of Mike Del Mundo, Kagan McLeod, Kalman Andrasofszky, Juan Carlos Solon, Yuta Onoda, and a whole slew of other talented guys. Come on by and say hi! (and bring snacks if you can) <br />

Hello friends,</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
it feels like it's been long time since I've updated. I've been a little under the gun lately trying to get a lot of work done, so i decided to take a small internet hiatus. Things are nearing a finish so hopefully I'll be able to start sharing more regularly again soon.</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
But! I do have some things to share now! </div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Opening tomorrow is 'A taste of things to come' group exhibit at Spoke Art in San Francisco. The show has a pretty stellar lineup of artists including my wickedly talented pals <a href="http://www.samwolfeconnelly.com/">Sam Wolfe Connelly</a> and <a href="http://www.rodluff.com/">Rodrigo Luff</a>, both of whom will be having solos with Spoke in the coming year. </div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
I have some new and familiar pieces in the show. </div>

I was able to contribute a graphite drawing as well as a small ink study. <br />

I will be doing illustrations for Mike Carey's new book The Steel Seraglio, which is being co-written by his lovely wife Linda and their daughter Louise. I had the pleasure of having dinner with Mike and Linda when they were in town for a set of book readings. Just two of the most wonderful and interesting people! <br />
<br />
Many of you might recognize Mike from his comic work with Marvel, DC, and most recently the Vertigo series The Unwritten, illustrated by Peter Gross and covers by Yuko Shimizu. <br />
<br />
This illustration depicts one of the central characters in the novel, Rem, who is an oracle of sorts. The piece is part of a set of promotional prints for the book, which you'll be able to pick up at the readings for the book, as well as few conventions coming up. <br />
<br />
It was really fantastic to hear about his experiences in the industry, and to discuss what the collaborative writing process was like for Sergalio. Getting to know clients and fellow creatives has to be one of the best perks of this lifestyle!Nimit Malaviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01135900109404425399noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24388219.post-91574449134912895002011-05-03T10:00:00.000-05:002011-05-03T10:00:48.331-05:00Wolverine & Jubilee 4<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Issue 4 has been out for a few weeks now, and I couldn't be happier!

just wanted to do a quick post up and reminder that this weekend is Toronto ComiCON : Fan Appreciation Day. It's one of Hobbystars featured cons in Toronto, and this one is free admission! So come out and say hi. I'll be selling a lot of prints and merchandise, along with some original sketches and you can always commission a drawing or two as well. Here's a link to the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/torontocomiccon#!/event.php?eid=112289858845403">event page</a> where you can find all the information. <br />
<br />
Also for those of you who aren't followers and those you are, Juan Solon, Chad Covino and I have started up <a href="http://hawkandsquirrel.wordpress.com/">Hawk and Squirrel</a> again! We've been recording a lot of different material, for some more multimedia episodes, along with getting back to the podcast itself. It's been tough with all of us in different cities, but we're hoping to get back on that horse and have new episodes to share. Here's the latest episode we recorded,<br />
<br />

<br />
Also the Quentin vs Coen show opened last night, to a great success I hear. The show is up for another 2 days in NY, so if you're in the area feel free to stop by Bold Hype Gallery. And if you made it out to the opening, feel free to share photos! <br />
<br />
Hope everyone has a great weekend!Nimit Malaviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01135900109404425399noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24388219.post-15469964581864910392011-04-05T11:25:00.001-05:002011-04-05T11:25:00.372-05:00Quentin Vs.

It's a themed group show based on the works of Quentin Tarintino and the Coen Brothers.<br />

I had a difficult time choosing what movie to base the piece on, I was circling around Fargo for a little bit, but decided on Kill Bill in the end. I posted few images of the progress for the piece.<br />

</div>I'm always a little hesitant to take on commissions these days, it feels like a gamble half the time. In some cases the direction can be so heavy handed that it really feels like labor. This was not one of those cases. The level of trust and freedom was great; given enough guidelines that I could build a nice box to work in and out of, and I was allotted the chance to pay homage to my favourite brotherhood, the Pre-Raphealites. <br />

Rather than spend this entire post listing the ways in which Tessar Lo and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are similar (I already did that in a draft, and I got it into the double digits), <br />
<br />
I'll just say this, I've seen the work, and much like Karen O, Tessar Lo puts on a helluva show! (rhyming)<br />
<br />
This Friday is the opening of his latest solo exhibition, "MAPS", at Show & Tell Gallery in Toronto. From what I've seen I was sincerely moved...you'll not want to miss it. <br />
<br />
Amanda has done another wonderful write up and interview for the show <a href="http://www.erraticphenomena.com/2011/03/tessar-los-mps.html">here</a>, have a look.<br />

Get your cloaks and wands ready, it's that time of the year again! Wingardium leviosa!! (get it, cause it's "Wizard" World? What else did you expecto patronum? eh? eh?) <br />
<br />
I was really happy to hear from the folks over at<b> Wizard World</b>, who invited me to attend this year's Comic Con in Toronto. This is my first convention as an Invited artist, which is crazy! I'm really looking forward to it. Along with a lot of prints of my original illustration work, I'm going to have two new prints, zines, buttons, postcards and more. I will also be selling original sketches and drawings of some very and not so very nerdy things. Check out the Wizard world site <a href="http://www.wizardworld.com/toronto.html">here</a>, for all the information on tickets, times and guests.<br />

I wanted to say thanks so much for all the messages and for everyone that went out to their local comic book shops and specifically requested my cover. The first issue SOLD OUT and has now gone into it's second printing (WOOOOO!), so you should be able to get your hands on a copy soon.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">A few other little bits of news, </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
I was recently invited to started blogging over at<a href="http://www.illostop.com/2011/02/x-citing-work.html"> Illostop</a>. There are a lot of really talented illustrators contributing including <a href="http://www.chris-whetzel.com/">Chris Whetzel</a>, <a href="http://victo-ngai.com/">Victo Ngai</a>, <a href="http://www.jasonraish.com/">Jason Raish</a>, <a href="http://www.edwardkinsellaillustration.com/">Edward Kinsella</a> and many more. I'm really proud to be in such great company. I posted a few days ago discussing the process for the covers, feel free to check it out and have a read through the other articles.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://notoart.com/">Phil Noto</a>, SPECTACULAR comic book artist, is having a solo show in NYC this month. Here's a <a href="http://www.boldhype.net/">link</a>. If you guys could do me a solid and go check out the show in my stead, that would be really rad of you. </div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I'll be attending quite a few conventions and expos this year, along with a few shows in the works, and some really fun new projects, but more on that later.<br />
<br />
take care. </div></div>Nimit Malaviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01135900109404425399noreply@blogger.com4
