The art of cartoons is one example of freedom of speech and freedom of expression. Good morals, ethics and values for humanity such as this, is and has always been "left leaning". WE DO NOT WANT KINGS, AUTHORITARIAN RULERS, ETC TO FORCE US TO LIVE IN HATE AND FEAR WHILE TAKING AWAY ! FREEDOM IS A BIRTH RIGHT FOR EVERYONE, SAME GOES WITH PEACE AND PROSPERITY ! ALL POWER TO THE PEOPLE ! PEACE ! _ Erica
Puppetry: The performance art of moving an inanimate object, creating the animated illusion of life. (e.g. A modeled doll of a human or animal. )
- Some puppeteers wear all black.
- Some puppets need more than one puppeteer.
_ Some puppeteers hide in view and some don't.
- Some are moved with hands, others with rods or strings. Some with several methods.
- It's acting with a sculpture.
- ADULT PUPPETRY EXISTS!
By the way, I not only draw but I'm a puppeteer and puppet builder too as well as an independent filmmaker.

One of the things that I'm interested in the study of "personality types" ( especially MBTI ( Myers Briggs / Carl Jung Personality Types ). I'm an INFP 4w5. INFPs tend to be very deep in several ways. Not only empathy, sympathy but especially their internal world and individual identity. F types ( feeling types ) can be sensitive. But depending on the personality type ( especially the cognitive functions ), how they think and express themselves can differ. As an iNtuitive, I think a lot about on how everything connects in patterns and similar ideas / concepts / etc. S types ( Sensing ) are grounded to earth, live in the here and now.
Perhaps this is why sometimes INFPs can be perceived as emotionally intense to some or "think too much" about something.
The majority of people are sensing types which explains why INFPs ( and similar iNtuitive types ) can feel misunderstood sometimes.
And this is a comic that I've drawn relating to perhaps an INFP ( or similar type ) can question the evil and cruelty in the world while other types would sometimes rather avoid negativity emotions all together.

TV & Film Puppetry art that I drew in late October of last year.
I've been interested in the art of television and film puppetry since childhood. Not only was I a fan, I was curious on how it worked.
Art is more than just entertainment, creativity is magic.
I remember when I was a kid, drawing and trying to figure out how it all worked.
Perhaps such filmmaking techniques slightly differ from how a human being is filmed.
It's important that the puppeteer isn't visible on camera for the most part.
The puppeteer would need to watch a monitor so they can see the puppet performance in real time.
A camera operator might be present if it's a studio production. However with independent filmmaking ( or video making for some ), a video camera set up on a tripod can get a simple scene filmed.
But all scenes in puppetry filmmaking aren't the same. It can be simple or it can be more complex, depending on what what you want to achieve creatively.
Many times, puppeteers would wear a headband with a microphone but sometimes for puppet characters might be audio recorded ahead of time.
This is a visual general idea of how television / filmmaking works but it can differ in many ways.
A puppet character could be behind a desk with the puppeteer hiding behind it or the set could be built higher so the puppeteer can perform while standing.
