I did 32 years of political cartoons, one every day for six days a week, I wrote and drew every word, every line. That body of work is the one I'm proudest of.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've written a whole body of work that I'm incredibly proud of.
I thought I was going to make crazy cartoons for the rest of my life. I didn't think I'd ever get paid for it, didn't think I drew well enough, but I knew it made me happy.
When I was starting out in 1988, I was doing cartoons on President George H. W. Bush, Iraq and the fall of Soviet Union.
I'm proud of my work and how far I've come, and I'm proud of the way that I did it.
I've always called myself a journalist who happens to draw. If I wasn't drawing cartoons, I'd be writing stories.
I realized that people make cartoons for a living. It had never dawned on me that you could do this as a career.
It took forever for me to get work because I was a political comic, and now it's become good business, and God knows how long that'll last. You have to do it night after night after night to kind of make it. I still find myself on 'Piers Morgan' or on some show and I think, 'I hope this is funny.'
I wrote my master's thesis on cartoons!
I see myself as an artist who happens to do cartoons.
I think that's why I became good at art. It was something that I could do that I could be really proud of.
