COMICAL CAPERS

Maxine Sylvester is the founder of Comical Capers and the creator of ‘Bin Lids’ strip cartoon. Her original background lies within the Tourism industry and Maxine likes to use her knowledge of foreign cultures by incorporating them in to her artwork. Strips such as the ‘Expat Files’ and ‘Hank ‘n’ Marvin’ were influenced by her overseas experiences in Russia and her employment onboard US Cruise liners.

Although primarily a strip cartoonist, Maxine appreciates how diverse the cartooning business can be and is very versatile; she can be commissioned for all aspects of humorous art including, single gags, greetings cards and caricature. Her most recent project was for the ‘Sticky Mitts’ Junior Cuisine website, where she designed characters and children’s cartoons for the ‘members’ area.
