Bill Asprey (Cartoon World Founder & Cartoonist)
Bill says he was only good at drawing, so always wanted to be an artist. He began cartooning early in his career and has been a lifetime professional cartoonist ever since! Bill is the artist behind the Love is...cartoons, originally created by Kim Casali and Roald Dahl's Big Friendly Giant cartoon strip which he created for the Mail on Sunday, plus other well known features including Aphrodite, which was syndicated worldwide. He has also drawn cartoons under contract for Playboy Publications and produced thousands of cartoons for most of the world's newspapers and magazines. Bill's latest creations Beez and Puppy Love have recently been licensed for mobile phone content.

In 1998, Bill launched a website "Artful Asprey Cartoons" to show his own work, with the help of Independent Web Marketing. Excited by the possibilities he started another, "Cartoon World" to help aspiring cartoonists to exhibit their work and to promote all aspects of the cartoon art form. So Cartoon World was born! Now, a small group of creatives and web-techies help to keep everything running smoothly, overseen and directed by Bill.
