Bill Leak's cartoons
Bill Leak spoke at our Club last week and explained the difference between art, illustrations and cartoons. Cartoons used to be throwaways until they were shared through social media and now they get a lot of attention, reflecting current community issues in a creative and sometimes satirical way. ps IdeaSpies does not take a view on politics and is now paying more attention to cartoons.
