How Artist Barry Blitt Turns Politics and Pop Culture Into Cartoon Gold | The New Yorker

[@dreed1058]

Short & sassy! He seems very likable, extremely talented & humble!! Nice to see the person behind the art😂❤.

I love seeing cartoonists in their element. Makes me wish I went down that path. Funny, snarky guy

[@joanneward258]

We're going to need him.

Perfect wit pairing of a subject like Barry Blitt and director @NewYorkNico. Blitt is just the guy I hoped he'd be based on knowing him through his whip smart and hysterical social commentary based art. Bravo !!!

Barry Blitt: The only person who can draw a caricature of politics and make you laugh, cringe, and think all at once. It’s like watching a political cartoonist juggle, except instead of juggling balls, he’s throwing satire, controversy, and perfect timing into the air. 🎨✏

The Costco size bottles of Pepcid really tell the story of the artist's struggles.

That’s a lot of covers! They’re fun, Blitt’s fun, can easily see why.

Excellent. Humble genius. Being a working illustrator will do that for you.

[@scotsam7590]

I knew nothing about this artist behind these drawings. Would love to see his rendition of the Orange Hitler when you have to draw him again.

[@nuevayorknico]
