Today’s essential question: How can I create an illustration that combines both photography and drawings to tell a story?
Today we will be introduced to our next project. We will talk about how to tell stories with our art and how to give them meaning. We will also look at the work of Nithin Rao Kumblekar and how he combines photography with illustration to create his own narratives.
