Financial crisis


Recently I have been working on quite a lot of cartoons on the financial crisis, for a few of my regular clients and also some to sell via my website (the cartoon above is one of them). It's a goldmine for humour and great fodder for cartoonists which is going to continue for some time to come.

The irony is over the last couple of years traditional cartoon markets have been squeezed. Many publications have either cut down on or stopped using cartoons due to cost cutting. Which is quite strange, as at a time like this people could do with something to make them smile!

New Post!


After over a year without posting I have finally kicked my butt back into making one! This time I am determined to make regular posts that will hopefully be vaguely interesting to someone.

Hopefully more so than this one!

Anyway, above is a cartoon that was recently used (along with another one) at a Postnatal group meeting for first time mothers. This was the first time my work has been used for this type of thing, and just goes to show that cartoons are always useful to add a touch of humour to any subject. Plug...Plug...
