Cartoonist

Peter Nesbit

This bit’s great. Boring other people by talking about yourself! Here goes.....

Background:

Brought up on Mad Magazine, Monty Python and Jimi Hendrix. Took a gap year after 'A's, then gained a BA degree in Graphic Design before working at a number of UK design studios. Went freelance and supplied creative concept and design work, marker visuals, illustrations and cartoons for a variety of national Advertising Agencies, Marketing Companies and Public Relations companies. Nearly bought a Porsche at one point, but very wisely decided to get married and have kids instead. Centred on supplying illustration in recent years, and then gradually focussed on producing creative cartoon work in particular.

Clients:

Kelloggs, LloydsTSB, Barclays, Sanyo, JCB, Rolls Royce, British Steel, British Gas, St.Ivel, Co-op, Bryants, Fairclough Homes, Wimpey, Typhoo, Bass, Greenalls, Banks’ Breweries, Cadbury, Nivea, Smith+Nephew, Haven Holidays, Peugeot, Halfords, Lucas, Carnaud Metalbox, Birmingham Council, Sandwell Council, Lichfield Council, Hampshire Council, Homeserve, Cemex and many more. Currently a contributor to Rainbow Cards, Country Cards, First Choice (cards), Twizler (cards) and several other UK and international greetings card companies.

Services:

I can supply many different cartoon styles in colour or black and white, either quick or more finished for:

Websites.
Advertising and Public Relations material.
Information and education packs.
Point of Sale and exhibition material.
Company training programme material.
Greetings cards and Christmas cards.
Calendars.
Comic strips.
Website or company cartoon characters – initial design or development of existing characters.
Caricatures: I can also supply non-offensive colour or black and white caricatures of your spouse, friend, relative, colleague or boss, perhaps with someone famous – you name it.

With a short brief I can formulate the cartoon’s humour content myself, or alternatively I’m happy to develop the client’s own ideas.

Prices:

I have no hard and fast fixed rates for the work I do, I usually either work to an agreed budget or quote before the rough sketch stage, then again before undertaking the final finished artwork.

If you would like to see more examples of my work, I can supply a CD of my cartoon portfolio upon request. If you would like a copy, or would like to discuss any cartoon work, please contact me initially by email at the address shown in the contact details.

Thanks for looking!
