Jokes keep coming for Bellingham cartoonist

Despite the success he's found in it, drawing cartoons and illustrating was not George Jartos' first choice as a career.
“I was doing sculpture,” he said. “But I knew I could never make a living at it.”
Before he went into semi-retirement, Jartos was a prolific cartoonist and illustrator. His work appeared in greeting cards, Reader's Digest, Better Homes & Gardens, Penthouse and many more. He still does sell a cartoon to The Wall Street Journal from time to time.
