Relevance of Cartoons

What are cartoons?

 

Cartoon / Comic is a popular art medium. It is a piece of art. It is humorous in intention. It is usually a single drawing with a caption immediately under it. But its meaning will be more. It conveys messages more clearly than an article/news with 2 or 3 pages.

 

How cartoons help our life?

 

They give us a good laugh. It helps us to forget about our problems in life. The cartoon characters are very funny and carefree. They gave us some joy right from our desktop.

 

Cartoons illustrate day to day life in a humorous way. Although they employ humor, some are more serious in tone. Most of them use irony or satire. They usually act as a visual metaphor to illustrate a point of view on current social and/or political topics.

 

I have seen a cartoon about Global warming in JJComics. It gave me a good laugh and a good thought.

 

With the expansion internet, there are thousands of websites providing cartoons. Some are free, some needs credits. Anyway they are worth to read and use. They communicate more clearly than words.

 

How can we promote cartoonists/ cartoon websites?

 

Good cartoons need to be promoted. Cartoonists need to be properly recognized and rewarded.

 

How can we promote good cartoon websites? We can do that in different ways if we really appreciate them.

 

·        Give the link of the cartoon site  in the articles we are submitting

·        Putting a link in the emails we are sending

·        Using them (don’t forget to give them the deserved credit)

·        By introducing it to others…

 

Like all online directories the cartoon directories are also helpful.

 

For people who are interested in contributing cartoons or those who have ideas, but no time to start a website or join with any magazine/news papers, there are many website that are happy to receive their ideas/work.

 

So those who are talented, never give up or hide your talents, contribute it and give others a good laugh.
