Recent Economist cover

Category: Cover art, Economist

I am always delighted to be invited to draw the cover for The Economist.  Over the years I have lost count of how many covers I have actually published for the magazine… but the number is over 100. Above is this week’s magazine equipped with my artwork!

I have noticed recently how President Obama, like all his predecessors, has aged at a rapid pace in his first months in office. Above is a cartoon from The Economist that reflects on that observation.

Obama caricature

This summer I will have an exhibition of my cartoons in Belgium in the coastal resort town of Knokke-Heist. As part of the promotion for the arts and cartoon festival in town, I was asked to supply a cartoon for the poster.  You can see the art above. I will post the finished product later in June.

Found an old Economist cover

I was searching through an old thumb drive and found this digital version of a cover I drew for The Economist 11 years ago.  It was during the early discussions of a stock market “Bubble”.  Fed chairman Alan Greenspan was talking about “Irrational exhuberance” in the stock market (and no one was listening).

I had completely forgotten about this cover… it is always interested to see old work… like re-discovering an old friend.
