Wordless Wednesday: Not ready for primetime Slate cartoon.

"Let

Ahhh, I tried. But Wordless Wednesday isn’t for me. I’m a cartoonist, and we believe a picture is worth a 1,000 words, so long as we write some of those words. I wrote this as a New Yorker style cartoon. Okay, it’s sex play, role play. Do you have a problem with that? I suppose [...]

I only use Paul Newman’s legendary salad dressing.

I heart Paul Newman! Not so much for his movies, although he was great – but for entering my own life by doing movies on location, where I found him in person. I was dating the special effects guy on one film, and I remember he had to build a special sweat hut so Paul [...]

Sarah Palin cartoon with gun or murderous weapon in hand

I am all kinds of thrilled that I’ve been invited to submit political cartoons about the election to a major publication!! I’ve never done any editorial cartoons before. (My father used to suggest that if I did them, I would be a “real” cartoonist,  but fortunately – I think it wasn’t until he held my [...]
