Everyone can draw | Chaz Hutton | TEDxMitte
Can two circles and a line tell a story? Artist and cartoonist Chaz Hutton explores how drawing serves as a universal language, bridging gaps between people and cultures. Through humor and simplicity, he reveals how even the most basic sketches can foster creativity and connection.Introducing the character Jeff the Blop, Chaz demonstrates how minimal drawings can evoke emotion, spark imagination, and bring people closer together. By embracing our inner cartoonist, we unlock new ways to express ourselves and see the world differently. Chaz Hutton is an Australian artist, cartoonist, and writer based in Berlin. Originally trained as an architect, he gained recognition for his minimalist, observational cartoons that humorously depict everyday life. Through his work, Chaz explores how simple drawings can transcend language barriers, foster creativity, and connect people across cultures—proving that sometimes, all it takes is two circles and a line to bring a story to life.
