I was honored to receive the International Prize at the Salon du Dessins de Presse et d’Humour in St Just, France. I was given     two beautiful statues: a porcelaine cow and cartoon character. My French colleagues pictured here received the Regional Awards, and we were joined by students, who presented the awards to us.

dscriber cartoon

An interesting new news site, called dscriber, invited me to contribute cartoons…or panels or anything, really.  I did this a few days ago in response to the hiring of Diane Sawyer as news anchor.  I know the media and Hollywood love to create battles, particularly between women, so I drew this cartoon. The sad thing is, the public eats it up, and wants to believe that women hate each other.  It’s hogwash, of course, and has to be shot down!

Revolving Floor

I like twitter, I admit it. One of the beauties of it, if you follow people correctly- i.e. select whom you follow to suit your needs and interests- you end up connecting with very interesting folks. This can lead to links, and innovative endeavors. This is how I found out about Revolving Floor.  Michael Bennett Cohn  has just launched a new site of fiction, poetry, humor, cartoons, photos…you name it…and it promises to be very forward thinking. It supports creativity and innovation. Check it out.

I have a cartoon up this month, as the charter cartoonist for the site. Michael also asked me to serve as cartoon editor, and we plan to look for cartoonists who not only want to do traditional-style cartoons from time-to-time, but who seek to push the medium to new formats suitable for the web, using what cyberspace and the screen of a computer can offer new media.
