John Fewings was born in Simcoe, Ontario in 1955.
He began drawing caricatures of his high school teachers to 'piss them off' and get laughs from his friends. It worked on both counts.
His first editorial cartoons appeared in The Port Dover Maple Leaf and The Simcoe Reformer.
He now resides in Peterborough, Ontario with Gale, Josh and their border collie, Buddy, working as a freelance graphic designer/cartoonist.
A regular contributor to The Peterborough Examiner and The Toronto Sun, he also appears in the annual Portfoolio of the best of Canadian Editorial Cartoons.
