I realized that people make cartoons for a living. It had never dawned on me that you could do this as a career.

Cartooning at its best is a fine art. I'm a cartoonist who works in the medium of animation, which also allows me to paint my cartoons.

My very first professional job was a cartoon, doing voices for the Mr. T cartoon in high school.

So cartooning, for me, is an honorable thing. It's pushing the envelope. It's the truth of something through exaggeration.

Student cartoonists as well as professionals should always be careful that they're not doing a cartoon that already has been done.

Traditionally, the only way I come up with cartoons is by sitting at my desk and thinking.

Cartooning was a good fit for me. And yet now, years later, I almost never think about it.

As soon as I found out how compartmentalized the industry was, I realized, Well, no wonder the cartoons are so bad.

Obviously there's not much options when you're a cartoonist - you pretty much either work at home or rent an office I guess, and working at home just seems easier.

I see myself as an artist who happens to do cartoons.
