It’s International Women’s Day, and once more, we’re celebrating with a list that spotlights the work of 10 fantastic cartoonists. While some exceptional female names are already on comics fans’ radars—such as Fiona Staples, Emily Carroll,Kate Beaton, Jillian Tamaki, Raina Telgemeier, Eleanor Davis, Meredith Gran,Emma Rios, Noelle Stevenson, and more—the purpose of this list is to gather interesting and exceptional contemporary cartoonists who readers may not be familiar with.

I did a full-length, single narrative comic! Its called Summer, 96, its entirely hand drawn in coloured-pencil and its about treehouses and intangible dread. Hooray!

The studio I share with Kerry Hyndman and Chris Lloyd will be open this weekend and next as part of Dulwich Open House and Havelock Walk Open Studios.

I’ll be in the studio working the whole time, and we’ll have some prints and products available to buy. So come down and have a chat! While you’re in Forest Hill I heartily recommend a trip to St David Coffee House and a visit to Rob Lowe/Supermundane’s studio further up Havelock Walk. The Horniman Museum is round the corner too!
