Comic art is not only a medium to entertain the children but the same time also helpful to increase  imagination power,conceptulisation for any age group and emphasise anything to be one in this competetive world.The youth can adapt this either by reading or by doing.The artists have many kind of styles to draw a comic e.g cartoon,semirealistic,realistic,carricatures,etc and makes more prominent by the didgital color effects.

     To become a comic artist you should have a instict for good visualisation so you can illustrate the concept or story whichever you have in mind.First of all,for the beginers it is must to have a hold on the pencil or brush (it is your choice what media you want to apply) just practice with oval and circular shapes and with standard primitive shapes like box,sphere,cone and cylinder.To keep a fine grip on pencil most of the artists being practicing with oval and circular shapes while they are too good in drawing and popular but just for a hold.

     To draw any object or character you should observe the things and living beings deeply  with their nature and behaviour so that you can easily draw a consequential illustrations which is most important thing for the comic art e.g observe the rubber ball’s behaviour and it’s anticipations,when a rubber ball thrown by force than watch how many times it bounces over the ground against the gravity and also watch it’s stretching during the up-down movements. for another instance watch a an animal for their behaviour how they act,and for their anatomy and feature details.Obervations not only makes your art mature but also make realistic.when you start to draw a comic strip you should keep patience and draw the scenes or characters using their dynamic angles and perspectives like bottom view,worm eye view,top view,bird’s eye view etc.

     To  make more prominent to the scene,panel or character you should draw them using dynamic angles and perspectives so the reader have some fun and can read the story with enjoyment.For the beginers it is recommended that they should observe famous comic and graphic novel artists work,live sketching,images and paintings,anatomy books to be a good artist.
