Cartoon maker software is readily available to help cartoonists.
I prefer to use the old method of drawing that
requires pen and ink on paper. Basically, cartoons actually drawn by hand
or “manually” so to speak.
It’s because no technology existed when I was a
child and my interest in drawing cartoons initially began at a young age.
In n sense, I use technology to my advantage by
colorizing my cartoons digitally, I communicate with those professionals
who may be interested in my work via email. And I derive sales of my cartoons
and illustration services through my online portfolio and cartoons I make
available through my website.
I still consider myself “old school” to a degree
though.
Pencils and paper are all I ever knew. But I see technology as a
great asset to the creative world and this includes cartooning.
I have nothing against using software programs
or any devices now in use for creating artwork and cartoons digitally.
I think it’s because I inherently learned to
draw using the old school method and really, I value and cater to that method
more and think it’s still the best way for creating my own cartoons and
humorous illustrations.
