Ben Jennings

Profile

Ben Jennings is an illustrator and cartoonist working just outside of London who has produced work for a variety of clients worldwide. His style can lend itself to serious subject matters, often tackling tricky topics with bold imagery, social comment and metaphor, as well more light-hearted briefs that allow him to inject his sense of humour and capture likenesses when necessary with distinctive caricatures/portraits. Ben’s regular work as a topical cartoonist for The i Newspaper and The Guardian, as well as often illustrating for Op-ed’s, require him to have an astute political awareness and constantly keep an ear to the 24-hour news cycle, as well being capable of turning around work quickly to tight deadlines. He likes to distract the viewer with his work, whether it be to make them think or laugh (or both), and tries to communicate ideas that hit the nail on the head of whatever the subject might be.
