Cartoons from July 2017
I'm sure when I first set up JMC summer was a quiet time. Not this year, it seems. New cartoon commissions and projects are not taking a break whilst people take their summer holidays. Which, from my point of view, is great! Here are some of...

James Mellor – ‘The Jester’ Interview and Front Cover
I always enjoy sharing cartoons and it's pleasant to share good news too. Today's post allows me to do both. I was recently accepted into The Cartoonists' Club of Great Britain - the UK's largest and oldest cartoonists' association. This month the club...
