So, without further ado, let’s hop into the post and see what Mat has cooked up since his last post. More info: Instagram | matbarton.com | newmobility.com First of all, Mat shared his backstory firsthand: “I’ve had a passion for cartoons for as long as I can remember but ramped up my efforts after I was paralyzed during a mountain bike race in 2012. Drawing cartoons was very therapeutic. I write a lot of my cartoons with my best friend, Adam Cooper. When I’m not cartooning, I work as a Graphic Designer and Illustrator in Portland, Oregon. My work has been featured in The New Yorker, The American Bystander, The Times Luxury, and many other publications. I studied Animation at Cal State Fullerton.” “I try to start every day by drawing in my sketchbook for an hour or so and see what pops up. Sometimes, I get some good gags. Other times, I don’t, but I love the process. If I think I have something, I call my writing partner, Adam, and talk over the gags with him, and then they evolve into something more.” “I scrap a lot of comic ideas. I do a monthly comic strip for wheelchair users for New Mobility magazine and send them a rough idea before finishing it. Sometimes, the pitch gets rejected for being too offensive. Making jokes about the subject of disability can be tricky at times, so the editors are careful about that.” “My favorite responses to my work come from people with disabilities who see my work and reach out to me saying how much they appreciated the joke.” Follow Bored Panda on Google News!
