I have always liked drawing on paper, though I'm not quite good at it. I've seen others draw on all different types of materials.
Drawing is a great activity that is low cost and encourages creativity. I am no artist but my kids are great at it.
My kids scribble, they are young. I prefer using pencils so I can erase, and of course they love crayons.
There are so many kinds of drawing. Sketching is trying to copy a person or object. Then you have the lampoon artists that exaggerate features.
Sketching is more just freehand not really finished pieces. I do not like caricature drawings.
Also, the comic artists that must repeat the themes and characters of their strips. I don't know how they do it so quickly!
Comic strips are funny. They must be really humorous by nature to be able to do it. Plus to only write so much in those balloons.
Yes, my favorite comic strip is Calvin & Hobbes. I have several large books of them. Calvin cracks me up so much!
Oh yes! It is one of the great newspaper comics. It is very popular, I can see why a lot of people love it.
