Newfoundland for Christmas

For Christmas our family does a Kris Kringle. Last year I was to buy a gift for my dad. When I asked him if there was anything in particular he wanted, he said that he wanted me to draw a picture of our trip to Newfoundland. Challenge accepted. Rather than a picture of one memory, I wanted to combine a whole lot of memories, places, animals and experiences. I originally wanted to have the illustration letter-pressed but after speaking to the lovely lady who owns/runs Bookhou in Toronto, where I really wanted to get my work printed, I couldn't get the size I wanted. She suggested that I screen-print it instead and here are the gorgeous results. She also recommended that I get some tea towels printed and they are so cute. Dad, it's in the mail. Merry (belated) Christmas!
