note on latest cartoons

I've really been slacking lately on putting cartoons up after I finished them. The most recent batch aren't posted in order really. Hope you enjoy them.

Chan Lowe

I interviewed Chan Lowe of the Sun-Sentinel yesterday. A great guy and a veteran cartoonist. Be sure to check out his blog:

wireless and thoughtless

I as ambivalent about doing this cartoon. Right before I started it I browsed my morning cartoonists' work to see if the idea had been taken. Nate Beeler had already used the main concept (no rove or reference to that infamous debate where Bush looked like he was wired). I decided to go through with the idea anyway since i liked the idea of turd blossom in the background baking cookies like its some dumb sleepover with his buddy george.

buying time

i might fix this piece a little in photoshop. erase the horizon line and raise it so it's higher. if not thati can at least use a watercolor brush (real or digital) and add in some black and grey values.
