THE WORDS & PICTURES OF HUGH MACLEOD

I‘ve always admired artists who can sketch something clever in a few moments over a beer. It’s rare to find such an artist who also has a way with words. The combo is called a cartoonist, and one cartoonist that I admire greatly is Hugh MacLeod of Gaping Void, who creates by doodling on the back of business cards. His work, samples of which are shown above and below, is gritty, smart, and blazingly cynical, but it always brings a smile. And we need more of those these days.
