HOW ART AND TECHNOLOGY WORK TOGETHER
Technology helps artists create amazing drawings and paintings in a faster and easier way. With
computers, tablets, and drawing apps, artists can draw, colour, and fix mistakes without using
paper and paint.
Digital apps like Procreate, Photoshop, and Adobe Illustrator let artists try new styles, add effects
and even make animations. Adobe Illustrator is a powerful tool that helps comic artists create
clean lines, design characters, add backgrounds and make speech bubbles quickly.
Artists can also share their work online on websites like Instagram and DeviantArt. This helps
them learn new skills, get feedback and improve.
Technology makes art more fun and creative. It allows artists to experiment, learn and show their
talent to the world.
COMIC STRIP
A comic strip is a short and exciting way to tell a story using pictures and words. It is a sequence
of drawings arranged in panels (boxes), usually with speech balloons, captions, and action lines
to make the story interesting.
Comic strips can be funny, adventurous, mysterious or even magical! You can find them in
newspapers, magazines, books and online.
FEATURES OF A COMIC STRIP
A comic strip is a fun way to tell a story using pictures and words. It has different parts that help
make the story interesting and easy to understand.
Panels
Panels are the boxes where the story is drawn. Each panel shows
a different part of the story, like a step-by-step picture book. Most
comic strips have three to six panels that help the reader follow
the events in order.
Speech Balloons
Speech Balloons (or speech bubbles) show what a character is
saying. The words are written inside a round or oval shape, and
a small tail points to the character’s mouth. This helps the reader
know who is speaking. For example, a superhero might say, "I will
save the city!" inside a speech balloon.
