A great cartoonist.

Maybe I haven’t been looking at his work for long enough – I kind of assumed he majored in humour and didn’t do too much ‘commentary’ if that’s the right word.

However, his most recent work on Gaza has quite an edge to it.

Worth a visit.

With Bush in the news again, it would be remiss of me not to mention a self-published book ‘Bush Combat’ by the excellent cartoonist Andy Davey (Guardian, The Times and The Independent).
It seems you can buy it as a download or as a paperback.
Direct link to the book is here. and you can read more about here on the Professional Cartoonists Organisation blog, Bloghorn.

Humour, horror/drama, movie analogy and an outstanding style and talent.

Here’s hoping his work doesn’t fall to the censor as the new regime at The Independent takes over.

Hopefully I’ll be posting more next week – I’ve been doing tax etc. paperwork all this week.

It looks like Alex Hughes is twittering and posting images from the Shrewsbury International Cartoon Festival over the weekend.
He has already posted images of his alfresco work, creating a ‘big board’ – an 8ft by 6ft cartoon.
Worth keeping an eye on here.

Pay attention out there.
After a ‘hectic new year’, cartoonist Morten Morland (The Times) has started posting to his blog again.

Well worth a regular visit, as is The Times cartoon page where his and Peter Brookes’ work reside.
