Ndumiso Nyoni draws the cartoons that feature Sipho, the roving reporter who, every week, finds himself reporting on happenings somewhere or other in the world. Ndumiso graduated with a national diploma in multimedia design (cum laude) at the University of Johannesburg and is also the junior art director for Luma Animation. He's proud to be a creative "who believes in design as a communication tool and not a platform for thoughtless decoration. A creative who eats colour, breathes composition and lives for concepts".
