Lisa Rothstein writes: “I was thrilled to be given my very first gallery show of my cartoons (ones that ran in the New Yorker and otherwise) that opened on Sept. 29 at Gallery-by-the-Sea in La Jolla. “Pet Projects” focused on animal themes, with 32 framed cartoons on display, featuring dogs and cats of course, but also a rhino, some horses, a snake, a couple of cows and— naturally—plenty of bears! On the two Sundays of the show, I gave an animal cartooning class and drew live cartoon portraits of people’s pets—both big hits with two-legged attendees of all ages. (These activities were repeat performances of my recent appearances at the American Kennel Club Museum of the Dog and the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in New York City.) In 2022, I was admitted to the National Cartoonists Society, the world’s largest and most prestigious organization of professional cartoonists, which was established in 1946. I’m still doing business communications consulting after a 25-year advertising agency career. It’s been so much fun to finally see my first childhood dream come true. Please follow me on Instagram.”
