Sheree A. Bradford-Lea (SABL):  Biography (Updated April 2008)

I was just another psychology research hack, doing some humour writing on the side, when I got married, had two children and morphed into:           A CARTOONIST!!! Well, I always did think visually. Now I get to write AND draw my visions. I also have been giving Cartooning Talks, which come complete with very fun workshops.  AND teaching cartooning this fall, to a great adult class. Not only that, but I have created a company, SABL Cartoon Creations, selling items featuring my cartoon art.  Some items are for sale on the site, but most are wall art that I sell at craft shows.  It's all very, very cool.

I started drawing my cartoon strip 'Life Outside The Box' around ten years ago.  My cartoons have appeared in a number of publications and are regulars in some, like the Herstory Calendars, Cahoots magazine, and Horizon Magazine:  A Digest of Good Stories and Humour.

Some cartoons don't appear with the 'Life Outside The Box' title, depending on the needs of a particular publication.  But they are still part of the 'Life Outside The Box' family.

Some Other Publications That Have Featured My Humour Writing and/or Life Outside The Box Homebase:  A Forum For Mothers Hip Mama Herizons The Best Contemporary Women's Humor (Crossing Press) The New Quarterly The Crafter's Network Resource Book (2008) Pigeon Lake and Area Visitor Guide (Summer 2008)

SABL CARTOON CREATIONS Well, I didn't have enough to do, so I decided to make a company called SABL Cartoon Creations, in order to start putting my cartoons onto useful items, like mugs, memo pads, and tin boxes, with the idea of selling them on the web and at craft shows.  I have some cartoon items for sale on this site.  BUT... It turned out that doing all this re-ignited my natural crafting tendencies! I decided to start putting my cartoons on all kinds of things, useful and--well, wall art.  The thing is, many of the items I now make are pretty fragile, so I can't see how to happily send them through the mail.  For you lucky people who live in my area, you'll be able to look over my cartoon wares at the local craft shows.  I'll keep updates regarding upcoming craft shows under "Cartoon of the Week". I also teach cartooning, and do two hour workshops for groups interested in learning how much fun drawing silly figures can be!  Email me for more info.

Am I still doing cartoons for magazines and calendars, and writing humour pieces?  The answer is YES!!! Again, check out my cartoons regularly in Horizon, Cahoots, and the Herstory calendars.  SABL Cartoon Creations, as well as giving workshops and teaching, just add to the fun!
