Cartoons

A cartoon only works if the idea lands fast — the line, the face, the timing, and the little bit of trouble underneath it.

About These Cartoons

Cartoons live and die on the idea. If the joke does not land, nothing else matters. These cartoons are built around timing, expression, and clarity, using line, shape, and character to deliver something quick, sharp, and readable at a glance. The goal is simple: get in, hit the idea, and move on.

It’s just a drawing. Until it isn’t.
