Newspapers
I work regularly for newspapers. It is a job I particularly enjoy as I get to respond to current affairs as they unfold. The work is often needed in less than 24 hours so it requires quick thinking and speedy drawing. I have worked for many newspapers including The Guardian, The Times, The Independent, The Daily Telegraph, Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, The Observer, The Express, The European and more.
