I am the resident cartoonist on the BBC's Politics Show. I produce a weekly editorial cartoon which appears on the tv show and on the online BBC Barker Gallery. I also create cartoons and illustrations for diverse clients from children's books, through education and government material through to single gags for national publications. This is my personal blog site which contains more material:

WOW, it's great to see a BBC cartoonist here! Welcome!

Thanks Bernd, but I think the Cloudedyellow site might be a little confusing - it's just my personal blog site where I post previous work for both the BBC and others, where I have retained copyright. So I've changed my site to the actual BBC one, which has the galleries from all my four series.

Cheers
Gary

I just saw the Cloudedyellow Homepage and think it is a most interesting way of publishing cartoons (by contract and payment)following the "paper era":) Hope more cartoonists will have possibilities to go this way! Congratulatins for you!

Smiles,
Bernd

Because of the remote nature of my relationship with the BBC I am more or less left to gauge for myself how successful I am being for them. But I presume I must be quite successful because they keep renewing my contract after each series and I'm now on my fourth, so... 8)

Cheers

I know this;) Virtual contacts, no meetings face to face, no more human voice to listen to...

But regardless this, I think your work for the BBC is very successful, isn't it?

Smiles,
Bernd

Hi Bernd,

The strange thing is that you have had more face to face dealings with the BBC than I have and I've been working for them for over a year! All my contacts have been done over the phone and I submit everything by email - it is quite bizarre really.

Best wishes
Gary

Hi Gary,

some years ago BBC called me on my mobile when I was sitting in my little studio in Berlin and 5 minutes later three BBC guys (leaded by a man named Jonathan Chapman, Europe Producer) came visiting me with a camera to shoot me drawing German chancellor Gerhard Schröder:), it was about 16:00h CET, and 10 minutes later it was all over and they were gone. It was a very speedy, funny and most professional action and I could already admire myself on BBC World News at 20:00h CET - incredible:D

Yours,
Bernd
