Teaching Cartooning: My Experience Running Workshops

By -
“When I held my first cartooning workshop, I was nervous. Would the students be interested? Could I really teach what I knew? But when the pencils started moving and the laughter began, I realized: cartooning isn’t just teachable—it’s contagious.” —  Arifur Rahman , cartoonist, educator, and founder of  Toons Mag  and  Cartoonist Network Why I Started Teaching Cartooning Cartooning changed my life. It gave me a voice, helped me make sense of the world, and allowed me to speak truth to power through humor and art.

Why Peer Feedback Is Essential in Cartooning

By -
"The first time I showed my cartoon to another artist, I was nervous. What if they hated it? Instead, they pointed out something I hadn't seen—and helped me make it better. That moment changed how I approached my entire creative process." —  Arifur Rahman , cartoonist, writer, and founder of  Toons Mag  and  Cartoonist Network Cartooning Is a Dialogue, Not a Monologue Cartooning may look like a solo journey—but behind every great cartoonist is a circle of peers, mentors, and editors who offer perspective, encouragement, and critique. In the age of social media and instant publishing, it’s tempting to skip feedback altogether and go straight to “likes.” But if you truly want to grow as an artist, storyteller, and communicator,  peer feedback is one of the most powerful tools you can embrace . In this post, I’ll explain why feedback matters, how it has shaped my own cartooning journey, and how you can give and receive critique that improves—not discourages—your cr...
