China Tantrum for SALE –SOLD

8/15/22 — Sorry, this one has sold. (Thanks, Blake, and congratulations on your first NFT.)  I expect to put another drawing up for sale here later next week —Keep an eye out for it.


I recently drew this cartoon about China’s tantrum over Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan –and the original art is for sale.

I almost never sell my original art and I haven’t tried selling originals online before, so I thought I would give it a test and see what happens with this one. One reason I don’t sell originals is that my drawings don’t look like what you would expect from looking at the finished cartoon.  I draw in pencil, with a hard black line on vellum, then I scan the drawing as line art and add color in Photoshop.  People usually think I draw in ink.  Here’s what the original looks like …

I also draw bigger than most cartoonists. I placed a ruler on the drawing to show the scale.  My paper is 14″ x 17″. Some cartoonists draw so neatly in ink that it is hard to tell if the drawing is an original or a copy – with a pencil drawing, an original looks like an original.  I like the look and feel of pencil, and I draw with a pencil like it is ink.  A pencil drawing looks great in a frame!

This cartoon was reprinted in lots of newspapers. I guess people like panda bears.

So here’s the deal, if anyone wants this rare Daryl Cagle original, the price is only $300.00, and $35.00 shipping and handling mailed to an address in the USA, plus sales tax if you’re located in California. Email me or call (805) 969-2829 for payment information and to give me your delivery info.  Shipping will cost more to a foreign address.  What a deal! 

If you’re the one, lucky purchaser, you’ll also get a nice, signed color print of the final art, a high resolution jpg file so you can print it out yourself however you like, and an NFT!  The NFT consists of wording confirming the non-exclusive copyright license of personal reproduction rights and the bragging right that you own the NFT for this cartoon. There’s no crypto currency or blockchain to hassle with; an NFT only consists of wording that licenses an image.  And I’m happy to inscribe wording that you like on the original and print –in beautiful, matching, pencil.

So, this is a test.  Lets see what happens!  Come buy an original editorial cartoon!

Thanks,

Daryl

Top Ten Cartoons, July 30, 2022

Climate change was on the mind of cartoonists last week after much of the country was scorched by a record-breaking heat wave. Things have gotten so hot in Europe that Spain rolled out a new heat wave ranking system and the world’s first named heat wave – Zoe.

With consumers still impacted by rising prices, a few of our most reprinted cartoons this week centered on inflation and the possibility the U.S. could already be experiencing a recession. And more than two years after the start of the pandemic, COVID-19 is still showing up in cartoons.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1

Chris Weyant took the #1 most reprinted spot!

#2

Jeff Koterba placed 2nd.  Here’s #2!

#3

Rick McKee  took third place!

#4

Pat Bagley nabbed 4th place.

#5

Dick Wright claims the five-spot.

#6

Rick McKee landed in sixth place.

#7

Jeff Koterba nabs seventh place.

#8

#9

Rivers takes 9th place!

#10

Top Ten Cartoons, July 20, 2022

Depending on what poll you read, nearly two-thirds of the country doesn’t approve of the job Joe Biden is doing as president. Crippling inflation, more COVID variants and high gas prices are just some of the issues cartoonists linked to our 46th president and his administration this week.

Editors also liked cartoons about the new photos from the James Webb Space Telescope, which offer a celestial perspective to all the squabbling and bickering in Washington.

Congratulations to Kevin Siers for the #1 cartoon, and kudos to Dave Whamond and Jeff Koterba for nabbing two cartoons each in the Top Ten.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1

Kevin Siers took the #1 most reprinted spot and the #2 cartoon too!

Things are hot right now across the United States, and I’m not just talking about the weather.

Top Ten Cartoons, June 2, 2022

After a gunman massacred 19 kids in a school in Uvalde, Texas, it’s not surprising to see a number of our shooting cartoons widely reprinted by news organizations. But what is surprising is the four most reprinted cartoons this week had nothing to do with country’s latest mass shooting – they touched on college graduation, inflation, and Memorial Day.

Peter Kuper’s cartoon about masks was also one of the most widely-reprinted cartoons this week, a sign that more than two years into the pandemic, COVID-19 still remains an important issue in the lives of readers.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

 

#1

Gary McCoy took the #1 most reprinted spot.

#2

Daryl Cagle (that’s me) took second place!

#3

Dave Granlund took third place!

#4

Dave Whamond nabbed 4th place too.

#5

Dave Granlund claims the five-spot with his second cartoon in the Top Ten.

#6

Kevin Siers came in sixth.

#7

Dick Wright nabs seventh place.

#8

Peter Kuper took 8th place with his second cartoon in the Top Ten.

#9

Adam Zyglis takes 9th place!

#10

John Darkow wraps it up at number ten with his second cartoon on the list.
