Jed Dunstan is a cartoonist based at Ngapala South Australia.
Jed has been drawing for as long as he can remember. After finishing his schooling in 2005 he started shearing and doing other agriculture related jobs. Jed lives and works on his farm at Ngapala. His editorial cartoon “Drawing Conclusions” is published weekly across Australian Community Media’s (ACM) rural newspaper network including the Stock Journal -South Australia, the Stock & Land -Victoria, Queensland Country Life & the North Queensland Register. Jed also draws a weekly gag cartoon titled “The Rabbit Trap” it can be found in The Plains Producer newspaper here in SA. Each year Jed creates two calendars, one depicting life in the Australian shearing industry (Bale Number 2022 coming soon!) the other is a collection of The Rabbit Trap cartoons. Throughout his career Jed has completed several other cartoon and illustration jobs, he recently painted a mural for the side wall of the Eudunda Bakery.
