Design Spotlight: Anita Labrentz

Our Design Spotlight falls today on Anita Labrentz of Eh-Okay Art Cards, a new artist (March 2014) whose humorous style will make you chuckle!

I like to create clever & comical cartoons that feature quirky critters doing things that people do, but in their own play-on-words ways. My favorite cartoons are always the ones that make you laugh and see something in a slightly different way than usual, so those are always my goals in creating my own artwork.

Maybe it’s just the Canadian side of me, but all those long hours hibernating from the long winters has to have some kind of consequences! My artwork all began when some American friends on Facebook teased me about the “typical” Canadian things like living in an igloo and having penguins for pets. My first cartoons all featured penguins and polar bears, and soon the menagerie grew to include many more fun and silly critters in all kinds of play-on-words situations.

What better way to depict the humor in life than to share it through my Quirky Critter Art!
