Dave Follows

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dave Follows born Stafford (1941 — 17 October 2003) was a British cartoonist. Follows' cartoons appear in newspapers, comics, and magazines all over the world, the Creature Feature is one of Dave’s biggest successes. Follows supplied cartoon strips for over twenty local newspapers, including the North Staffordshire The Sentinel (Britain) where the iconic May un Mar Lady strip appeared daily for over 20 years and is currently enjoying a full 20 year re-run. Many of Follows' cartoons are currently being syndicated in newspapers and magazines throughout the world today.

Follows produced thousands upon thousands of original art works with what seemed effortless skill: early cartoons were produced using pen and ink; later he embraced technology and drew his work directly on to computer. Almost all of Follows' 30-year output, from originals to scrapbook press cuttings, still exists today, and its popularity remains as strong as ever. Dave was a respected member of the The Cartoonists' Club of Great Britain
