I started doing cartoons when I was about 21. I never thought I would be a cartoonist. It happened behind my back. I was always a painter and drawer.

People often ask me about my upbringing, and if there was anything particular about it that made me become a cartoonist.

I became a cartoonist because I'd sort of failed at everything else, really. I mean, it was by default.

The best thing about being a cartoonist is to walk into a bar or someone's apartment and they don't know you, but they've taped one of your pieces up.

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.

Cartooning is for people who can't quite draw and can't quite write. You combine the two half-talents and come up with a career.

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 was the founder of the 'Cartoon Bank' in the '90s. I was interested in finding ways for cartoonists to supplement their incomes.

There are a lot of really great cartoonists out there. It's nice to be thought of as one of them.
