Hi, I’m David Banks, a professional cartoon illustrator with a passion for creating engaging strip cartoons, caricatures, and single-panel cartoons. I work with both digital tools and traditional pen and ink, serving a wide range of markets from newsprint to greeting cards. Over the years, I've contributed to numerous publications, taught cartoon courses, and worked on character development for children’s TV, which makes my work both fun and fulfilling. Beyond illustrating, I enjoy sharing my knowledge through workshops and tutoring, helping others explore the art of cartooning. I’m enthusiastic about crafting topical, insightful cartoons for editorial use and creating memorable book illustrations. If you love cartoons as much as I do, I’d love to connect!
