CARTOONS

Hello, and thanks for visiting my cartoon page./// I started drawing cartoons a few years ago when I was going to lots of comedy nights in Sydney, either to do an open mic spot, man the sound desk, or do the door./// A comedy night is probably one of the worst places to draw cartoons. The pub lighting is dim, you have to compete with beers for table space, and people keep interrupting because they want to buy tickets./// "Is that why your earlier cartoons don't look very good?" you ask./// Yes, that's why they're grainy and wobbly./// "But why do your recent cartoons look like that as well?"/// I guess I'm re-visiting the style of my earlier work./// "I am your inner critic and I hate you and everything you do."/// Do we have to do this here?/// "Fine. See you at home."
