The Evolution of Cartoon Art
Cartoon art has a rich history, evolving from early satirical illustrations to the diverse forms we enjoy today. In the 18th and 19th centuries, artists like James Gillray and Thomas Rowlandson used cartoons to deliver social and political commentary, using humour and exaggeration to critique society.
The 20th century brought the rise of comic strips and animated cartoons, with figures like Walt Disney and Osamu Tezuka pioneering new techniques and storytelling methods that broadened the medium’s reach and impact.
Today, cartoon art spans a broad spectrum, from traditional hand-drawn illustrations to digital creations, each reflecting unique cultural narratives and artistic visions.

Our collection includes works from a selection of notable cartoon artists, each offering a unique approach to the genre:
Malayka Gormally’s work examines the intersections of race and generation, capturing human emotion and vulnerability. Her naturalistic depictions of social interactions are enhanced by pastel colour blocks, which add depth and bring focus to everyday scenes.
A multidisciplinary artist, Athol Whitmore brings a playful, childlike quality to his work, exploring themes of youth, wonder, and mischief. His stylised subjects, inspired by 1950s media, are especially striking in his plate series, including Georgie Podgie and Hush (2017), which elevate cartoon art to a fine art level.
Ellannah Sadkin’s work reimagines iconic Disney characters with a fresh, often abstract approach. By rendering her subjects faceless, she invites viewers to explore familiar stories from a new perspective, prompting reflection and curiosity.
