Shades and Lines

Shades and Lines. It is about one aspect of my life. It is quite dear to me. Shades and lines is about drawing notebook and pencils.
It can be a bread earner. It is a hobby. It can amplify what you want to communicate by many times. It gives peace and sense of fulfillment.
But today the technology has changed. Software rules high in shades and lines. I am all for technology.Times have changed and technology has arrived. I am also in favor of twisting photographs and making caricatures. The effect can be mind blowing. But I need training in Adobe illustrator and other important software to be able to do something.
But one thing in favor of pencil shades and lines is that it has a distinct flavor. I guess my flavor is close to that of Madan. And a little R K Laxman. Anyway, others need to say.
There is a market for flavor. There is still a market for pencils. But one needs to be aligned with editorial team's thought process, too. This is very important.
Nowadays, I miss seeing cartoons. Satish Acharya cartoons, I see more frequently than others. I miss Ajit Ninan Mathew.
I use Google Images to catch up with cartoons.
Have a nice day !!
