If you're asking me what I love, it's that point where I'm just scribbling and trying to make myself laugh and trying to outrage myself. Getting in that frame of mind where the more you laugh the more you laugh… — Barry Blitt Copy Share Image
The back of Donald Trump's head is fantastic and his eyebrows are amazing. His overbite and his series of chins and the color of… — Barry Blitt Copy Share Image
I don't know what I was thinking when I was starting out. I was hoping I'd get paid to draw realistic pictures of hockey… — Barry Blitt Copy Share Image
Just look at the back of Donald Trump's head, any angle. There's some angles that his chin is just, what do I mean? I mean he's sculpted out of some kind of pudding, I think.

I'm, like, not overly into labels. I've been referred to that way, but I tend to think of political cartoonists as constantly at it,… — Barry Blitt Copy Share Image
All my drawings always sort of looked funny even if I was trying to do serious stuff and express myself about grim situations. It… — Barry Blitt Copy Share Image
