Gregdubeau.com ver. 2.0!

Category: Blog

Welcome back!

It’s been a long time coming, but finally the new and improved gregdubeau.com is up and running.  This new version is improved in every way imaginably including four new galleries, twitter feed, RSS feed and a built-in blog homepage.  All the credit goes to the most talented Web Designer I know; Dan Robere who runs Frisson Creative out of Mississauga, Ontario.  I sat down with Dan over the summer to go over ways to develop a web site based around a user-friendly updating system.  He opened my eyes to the incredible powers of WordPress. And now my entire web site functions based on “blog-like” posts.  So go check out my site!

Five months ago I ended Blue & Orange Hours, which was my student blog I kept while attending Sheridan.  After graduation I felt it was time to step away and gain some different perspective on life and art; hence, moving across the country to study Graphic Design at Vancouver Island University.  Now this is the first blog post I’ve attempted in five months.  So bare with me.  I have a lot of updates coming soon about my move to British Columbia, my adventures in Design School and the new work that I’m creating.  Time to get back on the horse!

And let me know what you think about the new site!  I’m so happy to be back on the web!  Big shout out to Dan Robere and his mad web design skills.  I wouldn’t be back without his help.

I have lived in British Columbia for nearly three years now and I have been accustomed to being awe-struck by the natural beauty and ecology. I live on Vancouver Island, so I usually explain its wonder by telling curious folk that it’s as if I am living in Jurassic Park without the dinosaurs. Recently there [...]

Wonderland is a series of paintings that I produced for the beginning of September. The series of 18 is currently hanging in Tony & Adam’s Restaurant in Thunder Bay, ON. The subject matter was given free-reign, so I decided to get in touch with some classic literature. Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking [...]

Well hello there, Check out the stencil I made. It’s not your average graffiti project and I’ll tell you why. In January of this year I developed a project that involved the ecology of my neighbourhood. I wanted to try something I’ve never done before, so I threw my hat into the whole “urban-graffiti-tagging” scene [...]

During the month of February 2011 I underwent a small self-imposed social experiment where I chose NOT to listen to music in hopes to understand how much music actually influences my day-to-day habits. For a long time I have been curious about whether adding music to my daily habits either improves or hinders my productivity. [...]

This is the cover illustration for the March issue of The Navigator. On March 10, 2011 Vancouver Island University Faculty went on strike leaving the winter semester up in the air until the strike reaches a resolution. As a VIU student I have heard both sides of the argument and I have to say that [...]

I had the pleasure of teaming up with Jean-Paul De Roover once again to create the artwork for his new A Cappella album, Pitch Pipes. We thought it would an interesting concept to portray the raw, vocal aspect of A Capella music using raw materials and ephemera from Jean-Paul’s past and present life. We used [...]

I’ve been working again with Jean-Paul De Roover over the Christmas holidays. Together we developed a concept for the theme and visual content of his most recent album. The new album features three a capella tracks from his previous album “Windows and Doors“. Our goal was to reflect the raw vocal element of a capella [...]

I’ve been keeping busy.  Decided to take a break from the social networking circuit for a little while.  I’ll be back when I’m ready.  For the time being, I intend on focusing my energy towards making great artwork and become a decisive and cerebral designer.  Wish me luck.
