Cartoons in web design Posted in Website Design, Concocted by Fred Roed,
Published on 1 October 2008

If I wasn’t a web marketer, I’d be a cartoonist. In my previous life, I used to doodle on anything that was doodlable. Now, with the introduction of a mouse in my life, I’ve dropped the pen, so to speak. Every now and then, I see something that makes me really sit up and take notice. Today I saw the work of Noma Bar for the first time and am amazed by his skill and dexterity. He somehow managed to combine ruthless satire with extreme economy of line.

Check out an interview with Noma Bar by New Yorker magazine here.

I would love to use some great cartoons in our websites, but to get this level (see below – how cool is the one of Bush?) would be something special.


I found some more examples here.
