In the peer crit, someone told me to look at the satirical cartoonist Gerald Scarfe. I've never heard of him before so thought I should have a look. Even though I think his work is amazing and depicts his characters so clearly, I think his work is very political cartoonist. I think it's a kind of style that has been done before, all the ones in newspapers such as the Private Eye are very similar to this.
This has made me think a bit. If I can make satirical political work but not just copy this sketchy style, do my own gouache style, then that is a gap in the market. This could be something that I could look into for the future. I know from looking at newspapers earlier in the module that they definitely don't have the kind of work that I do, very exciting.
