Right here’s my cartoon recap from the Cannes Lions Worldwide Pageant of Creativity this week. System1 invited me to sketch a every day cartoon primarily based on what I noticed, strolling round with my sketchpad for the week.
This one is in regards to the transition again to common work on the finish. Even in the event you haven’t been to this pageant, hopefully you’ll be able to relate to the return expertise after any kind of artistic retreat.
Creativity is in the end not in regards to the inspiration or concepts — it’s about the way you deliver them to life. Championing really artistic work often includes operating a gauntlet. It’s very straightforward to accept safer variations of artistic execution. However too many compromises can water down the end result to nothing.
One among my earliest cartoons reimagined Isaac Newton beneath the apple tree and what occurs after the apple drops and inspiration strikes. Every body has chomps taken out of the apple till what’s left is applesauce. All of us should battle in opposition to Newton’s applesauce.
A number of of my conversations final week touched on this common problem in artistic work.
Right here’s the remainder of my Cannes Lions cartoon mini-series. I hope you get pleasure from them!
