BIOGRAPHY

Simon has been a car­toon­ist and car­i­ca­tur­ist since he could first grip a pen­cil. His ear­ly tar­gets were teach­ers and school­mates, fre­quent­ly con­tribut­ing to school and col­lege magazines.

He trained at art school back­ground, where he focused on large-scale oil paint­ings, how­ev­er, Simon per­sist­ed with his pas­sion for car­toon illus­tra­tions and car­i­ca­tures, even against the advice of his tutors.

Simon acquired skills in mag­a­zine and news­pa­per design while work­ing at var­i­ous pub­lish­ing hous­es. It was dur­ing his time at the Aus­tralasian Express news­pa­per that he began sup­ply­ing car­toons to accom­pa­ny arti­cles. How­ev­er, Simon did­n’t remain in full-time employ­ment for long. He tran­si­tioned to free­lance work, offer­ing both graph­ic design and car­toons, and built an exten­sive list of clients, includ­ing San­tander, Pick­fords Trav­el, Rolls-Royce, and many others.

Today, Simon pri­mar­i­ly con­cen­trates on cre­at­ing car­toon illus­tra­tions for news­pa­pers and mag­a­zines, as well as pro­vid­ing live car­i­ca­ture enter­tain­ment for events.

REVIEWS
  • "We commissioned Simon at extremely short notice to produce a large cartoon (whilst being filmed!) for us for a political package in our nightly national news programme. Simon took to the brief instantly and intelligently and, to be honest, probably had a a better understanding of what we needed than we did. Not only was the end product immaculate, the process of filming and working with him was a pleasure. Simon was fast, professional and good humoured whilst working under extreme time-pressure. I look forward to working with him again."

  • "I wanted again to say a big thank you for your involvement in our African Footballer of the Year project this year – we wanted to go bigger and better than in previous years and I think we achieved that. I was delighted with the way the cartoon profiles came out, and I hope you saw the results of the edits on the BBC Sport website and Facebook pages – there was a really good response to them, and I think we will, if it’s ok with you, frame up the original drawings and send them to the five nominees as gifts."

  • "Simon is a pleasure to work with. He gets the brief straight away and there isn’t a constant flow of version 1-10 as you don’t need to have. He is our go-to cartoonist whenever we need them for our magazines and websites."
