Austrialian illustrator and cartoonist Anton Emdin took home two awards, including the Gold Stanley for Cartoonist of the Year, last weekend at the Australian Cartoonists Association’s annual Stanley Awards night. The other award was for Best Illustrator.
Other nominees for the Golden Stanley include: Andrew Weldon, David Pope, David Rowe, Mark Knight and Peter Broelman. Emdin is also noted for being the first Australian to win a National Cartoonists Society award in the Magazine Feature/Magazine Illustration division.
It was a great weekend. A conference on Friday and Saturday with great talks and demonstrations and a gala dinner on Saturday night where the Stanley Awards were awarded…
Boy o Boy, the Australian Cartoonists’ Association has some amazing talents in its ranks and knows how to throw a good weekend…
Very well deserved! Congrats Anton.
Doff cap!
Mazel tov!
