Can you imagine what people did in the past, say in the 1950s. Let me share with you an anecdote about a grandma who grew up at that time. She had a great ambition of using her cartoons to make people laugh. Although life was not very comfortable at that time she tried her best to continue with what she loved doing. Currently, she is famous for her funny sketches that have an aim to encourage everyone, including children and teens.
Elderly Women Comedy Cartoons
This grandma was raised in a rather small town where people seemed to live rather hard but happy lives. The roads were dusty and there were no luxury computers or hand phones around. She used to spend her afternoons sketching caricatures of her friends and their animals, and pets. In school, she would draw cartoons on the faces in her notebook and her friends would laugh. Her teachers used to get annoyed with her, but they couldn’t stay angry for long because her cartoons were so happy.
She came to the realization that when she was still a teenager and she wanted the whole world to see her drawings. She used to send her cartoons to the newspapers in her town expecting that someone would buy them. There was no one to look for a young girl in those days. Few editors paid her much attention because she was so young. But she didn’t give up. She continued to draw and paint, and to submit her work to increasing numbers of publications. Anyway, one paper finally hired her.
