Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:
Cartoon
making is an art that requires a combination of hard work, training and a good
sense of humour.
Cartoonist
like R. K. Laxman says that making a cartoon is not a piece of cake. He says
that he has to wait for six hours, which includes spending a lot of time
scanning newspapers and television channel before any idea strikes him.
So
how does one become a cartoonist ? There are two colleges or schools for
cartoonists. Most of them comes from art college, while some learn the art on
their own. Most established cartoonists are of the view that 'one may learn to
sketch and draw in institutes but no one can teach any one how to make a good
cartoon,' says Uday Shankar, a cartoonist from Navbharat Times. It is one's
creativity and sense of humour, two qualities one simply may not have.
