Career


Bradford-Lea received a M.A. in psychology from Wilfrid Laurier University.[citation needed]

Her cartoons and humour have been published in various publications since 1994, starting with The Best Contemporary Women's Humor. Her cartoon strip 'Life Outside the Box' was a regular feature in the quarterly publication Homebase: A Forum for Mothers from 1998 until Homebase ceased publication in 2003, and in the monthly publication Cahoots magazine from 2005 until Cahoots ceased publication in 2011; she also wrote humour pieces for both.[1][2] She was the editorial cartoonist at the weekly newspaper The Winchester Press[3][4] and at the weekly online news publication Blacklock's Reporter.[5][6] Her freelance cartoons have been printed and reprinted in various publications, including Horizon Magazine: A Digest of Good Stories and Humour, Herizons, Hip Mama and The New Quarterly. As Randy Glasbergen said: "Having an editor accept one of your cartoons is comparable to having an audience laugh at a joke told by a comedian. Getting that cartoon reprinted in another publication is like a standing ovation."[7]

Bradford-Lea artworks have been part of group exhibitions in Ottawa galleries since 2008.[8][9][10][11][12] She has also created and donated artworks to raise money for Habitat for Humanity,[13] The Canadian Stone Carving Festival (2010–present),[14][15] and the Dr. Who chair for the Ikea & OCRI Pull Up a Chair for Breakfast Campaign, with her daughters, Zoë and Monica.[16] Her work is also sold through her own company, SABL Cartoon Creations. A play, The Devil Is in the Details, was produced by Flush Ink Productions in 2013, and a stand-alone monologue I Am Supergirl was produced by Sarasvàti Theatre in the same year. I Am Supergirl proved to be a popular piece; additional performances were requested by the United Nations Platform Action Committee and the Legal Education and Access Fund for women.

In 2015, Bradford-Lea co-created Shanima Puppet Players, and the group received a 2016 art grant to perform at The Happening in Hintonburg.[17]

Bradford-Lea is vice president of the Capital Network of Sculptors.[18] She also teaches classes and workshops on cartooning, other visual art and drama in various locations in Ottawa,[19][20] was the Creative Cartooning and Illustration Professor at Algonquin College from 2009 to 2013, gives talks and writes articles on cartooning.[21][22][23]
