Patrick Gathara (born 1972) is a Kenyan journalist, cartoonist, blogger, and author.[1] He is also a regularly published commentator on regional and international affairs. His work has appeared in multiple publications, including The Washington Post, Al Jazeera, and The Star.[2]
Gathara is currently a curator for Kenyan news site The Elephant.[3] He is also the author of Gathara Will Draw for Food, a collection of his political cartoons and commentary on the Kenyan political scene.[4]
Cartoon style
Gathara draws in pencil, preferring delicate shading to allow his subjects to emerge from the page rather than be defined by a series of strong ink lines.[5] He focuses on faces, with his subject's foreheads narrowed, the cheekbones and jowls extended, and the ears exaggerated.
