Forbidden Caricatures in Morocco
An 18 year old citizen in Morocco has been condemned to a year in jail for posting a Damien Glez caricature of the king of Morocco, Mohamed VI, on Facebook. The answer to this lack of freedom: more caricatures to break down the taboo. The artistic community is invited to fight this cancellation of freedom of expression and of the people of that country, by creating their own "forbidden caricature."

Bibi and Johnny
I wanted to draw something cynical about what I felt was the inevitability of war between Iran and Israel. You notice everyone always uses the same rhetoric.

Behind-the-Scenes: Matteo Bertelli
This week's edition of Behind-the-Scenes is again a video, featuring the work process of Italian artist Matteo Bertelli. Although Matteo uses graphic software to put the finishing touches on his work, 95% of the cartoon is made the traditional way, with pen, ink, brush and paint. Watch the video on the blog.
Very GOOD!
