Art & Works

2018

Crinklz - Stickers

Jākē used art elements from Marci McAdam to create the 'Crinklz (Official)' Sticker Pack for Telegram. https://t.me/addstickers/Crinklz_Official

Fur-Eh! - Paws Vegas Conbook

Jākē was chosen as the Publications and Signage Lead for the second year in a row for the Canadian Conference Fur-Eh. The 2018 theme was 'Paws Vegas'.

2017

Crinklz - Space and Sea Diaper Design

Working with Marci McAdam and creators of the BetterDry brand, Jākē used art elements from Marci McAdam to create the new Crinklz designs 'Space' and 'Sea'. The new designs where completed beginning of December 2017 and went to manufacture mid-January 2018.

Fur-Eh! - Harry Otter & The Furbidden Amulet Conbook

Working mostly as layout artist under the title Publications Lead, Jākē created the entire layout for print using inspiration from the theme as well as incorporating all the other artist's works; written, drawn or otherwise. The direction of the book for 2017 was to create something to take home and keep. A risky redirection was incorporated by excluding the panel listings as well as schedule and instead creating a secondary fold up map for easy reference.
