It's been a long time since I last posted my caricatures. I'm about three months behind, and my plan is to post the backlog to the blog over time.

Looking at this cartoon after the fact, I probably should have put the words "earmarks," "pork" or "spending" somewhere in the cartoon to make the point clearer. I'm always second-guessing myself because cartoons like this give me good reason. It's a good concept, but it could have been executed better. → Follow Nate Beeler on Twitter! → Get Nate Beeler's cartoons sent to your e-mail...By: Nate Beeler

This cartoon is maybe a tad hypocritical, since I just jumped on the bandwagon and started "tweeting" (or is it "twittering?") last week. Though I give you my word of honor that I won't be tweeting my every random thought or whether I feel the urge to hit the bathroom. → Follow Nate on Twitter! → Get Nate's cartoons sent to your e-mail...By: Nate Beeler

Some days you can spend hours on crosshatching and brainstorming. And on others you get super-early deadlines. One thing of note on this cartoon was that it was done entirely on the computer. The past few weeks I've done about three other all-digital cartoons. The results are similar, but I still have to say that I much prefer the tactile feel of drawing and inking on paper....By: Nate Beeler

I apologize for being a few weeks behind in posting my weekly caricatures. I figured I might as well post them all at once now instead of spacing them out over a few days.

Below is the color version of the cartoon. I originally thought it should just be black and white, for a variety of reasons, but decided to see if there was some way to get color in it. Of course, I was inspired by the posters of Shepard Fairey. It's not a lot of color, but adding the blue and red gives it a patriotic feeling as well as making it look a bit like a silkscreen print. I haven't tried it yet, but I have the feeling the cartoon would really pop out at you if you're wearing 3-D...By: Nate Beeler

Mayor Fenty's been wiping out a bit too much lately, on his bike as well as in his official capacity. It was about time for me to revisit the D.C. youth summer jobs program story, so it seemed natural to put Fenty's wipe-outs to good use in a cartoon. It also just so happened that my editor decided to write an editorial about it today. Although I'm never required to do so, it is kind of nice when I can pair the cartoon with the editorial....Sports
