Doug Diss-out of my filing cabinet – one of a series of slimming cartoons I did some years ago for a slimming mag here in the UK. These cartoons never went to print and were never finished off to colour artwork as the editor changed her policies on cartoons. Stay tuned to see the rest of them.
Pusu-ups are good. PUSH-AWAYS are even better!
Here’s one of my favourite quote:
My advice if you insist on slimming: Eat as much as you like – just don’t swallow it.
Harry Secombe
A few years ago I worked with Diet and fitness guru Rosemary Conley on producing some motivational cartoons for her UK magazine. Here’s another one of the cartoons I drew up for her…
While working on the series of cartoons I jotted down a number of slimming quotes…
Your stomach shouldn’t be a waist basket. ~Author Unknown
A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit. ~Author Unknown
More die in the United States of too much food than of too little. ~John Kenneth Galbraith, The Affluent Society
In the Middle Ages, they had guillotines, stretch racks, whips and chains. Nowadays, we have a much more effective torture device called the bathroom scale. ~Stephen Phillips
I keep trying to lose weight… but it keeps finding me! ~Author Unknown
I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number you get in a diamond. ~Mae West
The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then your body and your fat are really good friends. ~Author Unknown
When commissioning cartoons… Pick TWO of the three options!
Good+Fast = Expensive Choose this and I’ll postpone every other project on my drawing board, my round of golf or give up my footy match ticket and work day and night to get your job done. It WILL NOT BE CHEAP though!
Good+Cheap = Slow Choose good and cheap and I’ll still do a great job at a discounted price. But you’ll have to be patient while I fit you in after my higher paying clients, updating my web site, going down the gym, my footy matches, rounds of golf and liquid lunches!
Fast+Cheap = Inferior Choose this option at your peril. It will still be delivered on time but it will be inferior, as many corners as possible will be cut. You know the saying ‘You get what you pay for!’ The least favorable option in my opinion!
