You know my philosophy: Keep reading and keep looking — we just never know where we'll find inspiration and knowledge if we open our eyes and go off the beaten path. If we embrace the "beginner's mind" and keep our mind "empty" then it's ready to accept anything for examination. It was in this spirit, then, that I purchased a book on (gulp) comics.

Learning from the art of comics
Highlighted by virgile

many fundamental concepts and techniques that will surely help you think differently about the power of visual communication and the art of combining words and images. This book is not just for fans of comics — not by a long shot.

cartooning is "...a form of amplification through simplification" because the
abstract images in comics are not so much the elimination of detail as much as
they are an effort to focus on specific details

"Cartooning is not just a way of drawing, it's a way of seeing!
Highlighted by alfolgert
the U.S. have a visceral reaction to seeing comics and fail to understand them
as anything but "low" art at best.

Perhaps this reflects a hole in the education system in the U.S. Perhaps visual
literacy needs to be taught along with other fundamentals.
