Inspired by my interaction with allbeendonebefore after the tiny earthquake in december

Everyone says that Vancouver is pretty or beautiful and that makes me think that Van is the kind of guy who looks great on the outside but isn't much on the inside once you get to know him

My guilty pleasure is subjecting Van’s hair to natural phenomena, which in this case, is the powdered-sugar dusting of snow on the mountains after a rainy winter night

I always get divinely inspired in art whenever allbeendonebefore comes and goes in my province... 

This is an accurate depiction of how I feel when I return to the North American portion of Canada after having spent a long time on the Island

This pretty much sums up the average rainy day date in Vancouver

#pc: vancouver #pc: victoria #project canada cities #old art #vanqueuever #rain is okay but huge puddles and umbrella-flipping wind always end me

mfw I talk about Alberta

“But I’m not an Albertan”

The day someone dropped their mixtape in an ice rink, a hockey team was born

A dumb AU that I used to think about when I walked home from the bus stop in the dark... Van and Vic are part of a group that ensures people get home safe and they fly around in the night with magical jackets made with the fibres of clouds

“Toronto is a Canada” is an actual drunk quote from me and refers to how everyone compares Toronto to New York, yet I realized how non-American Toronto really was after visiting the city

I figured I needed to draw more Vancalver and clagreeflams had a solution for me

Something that always bothers me when I draw comics is making (1) straight and (2) evenly-spaced lines for panels, so this was a bold experiment in doing panel-less comics

#pc: vancouver #the van man #pc: victoria #project canada cities #comic #old art #vanqueuever #i think about this a lot when trying to fall asleep #like vic travels to vancouver on the weekends and hangs out with van #also asexual undertones

I lost a hockey bet to allbeendonebefore earlier this hockey season and here is my end of the bet. I delayed it for super long at the time so I compensated with an elaborate comic

What’s this whole deal about saving horses and riding cowboys

I finally figured it out after pondering it for a long time... The song is about places with winters so cold that you can’t feel your face

#pc: vancouver #the van man #pc: edmonton #can't feel my face #i still think about this from time to time #also i had no idea at the time that the weeknd was canadian #very fitting wow #old art #vanqueuever #it was so cold in vancouver one day that i couldn't feel my face and it was exhilarating

I was trying out a more realistic style of eyes that fit my fairly detailed style better

I feel like despite being older and more responsible, Vic really admires Van a lot for everything he considers boring about himself

#either she views him as a senpai for food and culture #or this is rolling with my headcanon that she's in love with him despite him being ace or something #he wouldn't be bothered by it since he craves the companionship of another cascadia-minded individual #pc: vancouver #the van man #pc: victoria #old art #vanqueuever #lol he wouldn't be bothered if she hugs him because no one can see what happens on the other side of the mountains

I was miffed enough by the chestnut rain that I did a second drawing...

#pc: vancouver #the van man #that's me #old art #vanqueuever #seriously falling chestnuts are terrifying #i've never been hit by one but it makes me want to run
