Thank you to everyone who went to the Villain show this Friday, it was a huge success! Here are the 4 pieces I submitted to the show and are now on display at Sleeping Giant until November 27th. Prints of my pieces are available for purchase for $25, and limited edtition prints of two are available on museum grade 300 gsm paper for the very reasonable price of $45. Once again, thank you to everyone who came out to make this night a success, and if you have not visited the gallery yet, I urge you to see the show. So much talent under one roof!

Artist Statement:

Emerging artist and illustrator Mikellis presents a collection of re-imagined vintage book covers. Entitled The Library of Modern Villainy, this new body of mixed media explores a twist on adult-oriented television cartoons. The Library of Modern Villainy draws inspiration from 1960s and 1970s era Pelican and Penguin book covers in an effort to showcase each villain’s unique personality through print.

Born in Newmarket, Ontario. Mikellis is a third-year Illustration student at OCAD and has exhibited at the Whippersnapper Gallery and AWOL. He currently divides his time between collecting slides and dreading the impending gloom of winter.
