His first paid work, however, involved creating simpler, cartoon-style illustrations for local newspapers, which helped him develop a more playful and “cartoony” approach to his art.

Anthony’s path to becoming a cartoonist wasn’t straightforward. He studied advertising at university, but developed his cartooning and drawing skills through practice and life drawing classes. At just 16, he started working for Marvel UK, creating puzzle pages. Even without formal art training, Anthony improved his skills through dedication and learning, including tips he picked up from the Proko YouTube channel.
Anthony’s approach to his work is to focus on creating something he enjoys, with the hope that others will appreciate it as well. “I guess I focus on pleasing myself first and then hope that enough people enjoy what I create. I do think my work tends to be quite commercial overall.”
Anthony believes that drawing from real life is key to developing a unique style. He advises new artists not to just copy others, but to pay attention to and draw what they see around them. He says, “If you like to draw cartoons, don’t just copy other artists. Try drawing from real life too, because it will help you create a more personal and unique style.”
