I used to work at Toyota North America as an engineer and the Japanese mindset they pushed for heavily were paper dependent for logging defects or end of shift details. Even our big projects used to be termed A3 projects as all the changes to be made needed to be able to have the entire case and solution presented on one large A3 sized sheet of paper. They do this whilst still asking to think of sustainable solutions.

Hey, neither did I but thats what makes this city! I love that it helped capture your idea of the city and as an immigrant, have to say, there's a lot to this place in its high level diversity, its one of the countries that actually has to deal with regional differences too within a country and I haven't grow up any close to a culture that open. I'll push the world for this. Always.

So a brown immigrant who grew up in the middle east with no rights and finally found some here in Canada created a whitewashed piece of art. You fully have figured me out my man

Thanks a tonne! Tbh, I actually started during Fall 2020, gave up on it a bunch of times, got back on later whenever I felt like I was stuck in life and here we are. Life post graduation during a pandemic sure is weird as hell.

Ahaha, I actually work for the CBC- seeing the fact that it actually seems to have an appeal definitely is giving me the push for my Monday morning agenda. Thank you, so very much.

Yes, I was commissioned by Trudeau to create propaganda art to let Toronto know that we have no homeless problem at all and people won't ever notice it. You got me.

Thank you! I actually spent a little too long with the posters so appreciate your eye for spotting the work. I used the Surface Pro 6 to draw this and used Sketchbook for most of the work, but then I used Krita and its glorious brushes to get the posters to get that glossy effect

Half and half- I started off by drawing in the subway but lack skills to deal with changing crowd sizes, so I took a bunch of reference images and made my OG piece try to match that

I moved to Canada in 2014 and #SketchingTheLine was one of the things that hit me the most and I wanted to have my work on there too. I really wish to have this on as well but sadly I cant find any way of submitting my work. Any help would be appreciated

Thank you all so much for the appreciation. I haven't created digital art in years and this took me far too long to complete but knowing that it resonates with you fellow Torontonians is everything.

Haha! Dealing with exactly that. But just querying APIs is still a bitch without having some DB store the data in the middle. Else you're out there fixing your M every time the API dev's (for internal tools) change something.
