For almost two decades, I have been a member of Cartooning for Peace, an international non-profit organization based in Paris. It began in 2005 at the United Nations in NYC, and I was invited to be there to speak about the power of cartoons in helping foster understanding and peace. This initiative is very dear to me, as I always hope that my drawings can bring people together and encourage dialogue. This is what CFP is all about.
I was thrilled when they asked if they could use one of my drawings for an animation, in conjunction with numerous French Media companies. It was used for their holiday greetings.
Here is the original drawing they used in the animation.
