Cartoons, cartoons, cartoons.... John Crowther's Cartoon Odyssey

I think of it as The Fool's Journey. I've been asked who the "fool" is. It's me, but in the classical sense of the court jester. Only the fool was allowed to tell the king of his follies. All cartoons are available as prints or originals, framed or unframed, through my website or e-mail.

Doggie Tales


I'm saddened by the death last Tuesday of David Levine, one of the world's great illustrators, at age 83. Usually referred to as a caricaturist, he was in fact, like Al Hirschfeld, an amazing creator of what Hirschfeld appropriately preferred to call character drawings. As with the finest magicians and acrobats, one looked at Levine's work and thought, "how the heck does he do that?"

How is it that we hear endless media about Tiger Woods but the death of David Levine did not get any coverage or very little here in San Diego? What a sad state of affairs.
