Comic Ground: Cartoons for Common Ground Magazine

Comic Ground: Cartoons for Common Ground Magazine

November 11, 2013 Posted by Scott DuBar Comics, Illustration

Healing Circle Closed | Client: Common Ground Magazine

The Power of No | Client: Common Ground Magazine

San Francisco’s Common Ground magazine is leading up to its 40th anniversary with an issue devoted to the importance of humor. Editor Rob Sidon, who knew me from my days doing comics and short animations for a meditation center in India, called me up to ask if I had anything on hand. Alas, I had none. But that didn’t stop me from putting pencil to paper.
The first one, like most good humor, is actually based on a true event. The second one I did is a variation on an idea I had for a Grumpy Cat meme playing off Ekhart Tolle’s The Power of Now.
You can check them both out, along with the whole issue, here: http://www.sopdigitaledition.com/commonground/#/20/

Testimonials

  • “I am so fortunate to have found Scott online; though we’ve never met in person, we collaborate virtually with great success. He makes every illustration special, and he frequently exceeds expectations as he envisions something more interesting, humorous or beautiful than what had been ordered. Given his talent, professionalism and versatility, I recommend him enthusiastically.”

    Angie King
    Owner, HappyReading.org
  • “Scott DuBar’s illustrations are both entertaining and insightful. He artfully communicates important information through visually appealing maps and clever, creative illustrations. His Happy Trails maps have transformed our approach to destinations in Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine, and they have become a popular resource for our readers.” 

    Will Harlan
    Editor in Chief, Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine
  • “Scott is always creative, and always on time. He takes my thoughts and words from articles, and delivers exactly what I envision. His art has become an integral and outstanding contribution to a regular editorial presence in the Utah Adventure Journal.” 

    Paul Oelerich
    Editor, Utah Adventure Journal
  • “I contracted Scott in 2011 to design a large backdrop illustration for a trade show booth that my company was creating for the 2012 New York Toy Fair. Scott did an absolutely fantastic job putting the illustration together (on-time) and completely exceeding all of my expectations. I really enjoyed working with him and plan on working with him again. The quality of his work was great, and everyone that saw the backdrop commented on how great it was. Thanks a lot!” 

    Tom Giedgowd
