Humoresque

Προσωπικές πληροφορίες

From a very young age, I exhibited an aptitude for doodling aimlessly in school, and making inane remarks in social situations. Cartooning was inevitable. My cartoons first ran in The Minnesota Daily Newspaper in 2009, and have since been published in many online and print magazines including OVI Magazine, Paper Darts Literary Arts Magazine, The Feathertale Review, Piano Professional, Clavier Companion, The Nth Degree, Defenestration Magazine, Genome Technology, The Jewish Press, Hardwood Floors, International Musician, Z Magazine, Teemings, The Indianapolis Star, Fanc-e-Mews, and Polite Company Magazine. They have also appeared internationally in textbooks, merchandise, and many educational presentations. I recently had cartoons exhibited in the 2011 International Cartoon and Humor Convention in Virton, Belgium. In addition to cartooning, I work as a classical pianist, and teach music as a university professor. Humoresque is a single panel cartoon that casts a sharp and acerbic light on our society, everyday lives, and social customs. It uses absurd situations to show how ridiculous many of the "normal" things we take for granted really are. The title "Humoresque" comes from the musical genre of the same name, meaning a short, capricious composition.
