When I was asked by my buddy Gary to be involved in a poster art show for ‘If They Came From Within: An Alternative History of Canadian Horror’, it was a no brainer… I was in and stoked! In the beginning I was given a synopses for the Emanuelle, Eh? concept set in the 1970’s, as everyone involved did, each given a different synopses and time period. The cool thing about this project is that nobody involved knew what the other person was doing. When the posters were posted on facebook it would be the first time that everyone involved has seen each other’s work. It was an honour to be involved with so many talented people.

Kudos to Dave for pulling it all together. I know that’s not an easy task!

Original idea for the poster
Original idea for the film company, yes I was going for phallic.
Original drawing of the lesbian fur trapper with 1970’s bush. Maybe a bit too far. HA!
