A long time ago

It was a long time ago that I actually posted on this, between not having the time and forgetting I kind of just forget to write on this. 

Well let’s see what should I say and write. Actually this is kind of hard in a way usually I just write up a report or something and that's about it. But a weekly blog, well I just keep forgetting to do it.

MANGA

A common misunderstanding with Manga is there is only one style, usually contain disproportionate body types, pointe hair style, feminine man, women with large breast, etc., etc. (See Images Below)

 

However this is not true, Manga is in fact not an art style at all. But instead a name specifically giving to comic’s that were original published in Japanese. In fact the Japanese names for Manga ‘Komikku’ can simple are translated as ‘Whimsical Drawing’.

The reasoning and misunderstanding of Manga many in fact come from the fact that Japanese art has also been unrealistic (Note: This doesn’t include modern art) the reason for this is that Japanese art throughout history has also been characterized to appear human like but with disproportionate body type, hair, etc.

A prime example of this is no other then a painting by a Japanese artist Hokusai called ‘The Great Wave’ or simple otherwise known as ‘The Wave’.
