Koren Shadmi - illustrator
Written by Myra on October 13, 2009 – 4:20 am -I first stumbled upon Koren Shadmi’s comic book at a comic book store in Paris. Little did I know that his comic book was translated.. and that he was an amazing illustrator with strong concepts. Here’s a glimpse at his work.
P.S: If you’re into really strange.. twisted (with a hint of dark themes), then In The Flesh is something you should check out.

Cartooning is a skill that requires practice and persistence. As an aspiring cartoonist myself, I find it helpful picking up a few books at the library, trying out different art materials at the art store, practicing my drawing skills, and simple being open-minded.
Here is a blog I find find very useful for those who’d like to dabble in the world of cartooning or illustration. The blog features covers a diverse range of topics, including tools and materials, how to use them, tips and techniques.
