Why is it that two months of winter feels like two years & two months of summer feels like two weeks? I drew this little to-do list to remind myself to soak it all in while I can. ☀️
Pinnacle playing peek-a-boo with the CN Tower. Weird to see the skyline without it. As we build more “super talls” maybe we should have some protected CN Tower views since it’s such a skyline icon (eg from Riverdale, etc). Already we’ve lost some (between the TD towers).
Took my Hanlan’s stickers to Hanlan’s yesterday (except the pigeons, those were for a client project lol). 7 die cut stickers on one sheet. $12. jaketobin.ca/shop/product...
Got to draw Rainbow Railroad’s Pride card this year. Check your mailbox 😊
Pride isn't just one thing. However you celebrate this weekend, I hope it's a good one.
This new sticker sheet has seven die-cut vinyl stickers so you can bring a little bit of Hanlan's to your laptop when you're at work wishing you were at the beach. $12 for the 5x7 sheet. Stickers are various sizes. Half of June sales donated to Rainbow Railroad. jaketobin.ca/shop/product...
If you didn’t visit Hanlan’s Beach in the summer, did you even summer? This new print celebrates those hot, lazy, crowded weekend beach days. 8x10 & 11x14 prints available. jaketobin.ca/shop/collect...
New vinyl stickers for pride month! $4 each or all of them for $10 with 50% donated to Rainbow Railroad. Put ‘em on your water bottle, bike, or your homophobic coworker’s laptop while he’s in the washroom. jaketobin.ca/shop/collect...
Village Life, a new print for Pride 2026, is my version of a queer I Spy, modelled after an apartment building in Church-Wellesley Village (with a bit of added flair). What can you find? Available as 8x10 or 11x14 jaketobin.ca/shop/collect... with 50% of June sales donated to Rainbow Railroad.
Long live Toronto’s movie theatres & music venues. Here are three favs I just finished drawing: The Royal, The Danforth Misic Hall and the Eglinton Grand. Find them all here: jaketobin.ca/shop/collect...
Unfortunately feels like time to whip out this always relevant Doug Ford cartoon again
