4 Cartooning tips by The Creator Of Calvin & Hobbes
1. You Have To Lose Yourself In Your Work
"My comic strip was the way that I explored the world and my own perceptions and thoughts. So to switch off the job I would have had to switch off my head. So, yes, the work was insanely intense, but that was the whole point of doing it."

2. Create For Yourself
"Quite honestly I tried to forget that there was an audience. I wanted to keep the strip feeling small and intimate as I did it, so my goal was just to make my wife laugh. After that, I'd put it out, and the public can take it or leave it."

3. 3.Make It Beautiful"My advice has always been to draw cartoons for the love of it, and concentrate on the quality and be true to yourself. Also try to remember that people have better things to do than read your work. So for heaven's sake, try to entice them with some beauty and fun."
4. Every Medium Has Power
"A comic strip takes just a few seconds to read, but over the years, it creates a surprisingly deep connection with readers. I think that incremental aspect, that unpretentious daily aspect, is a source of power."

What could be more inconsequential than a comic strip? Four or five static panels, minimal movement, a quick punchline. Yet Watterson (and many other comic strip artists) have managed to create incredible, meaningful worlds, worlds that are genuinely important to the people who read them. There's no such thing as a small medium.

Usability at it's worst.
Someone call a creative multimedia designer with some serious UX to create some great UI here.

Creative Multimedia
This image is interesting because of the angle the face is at and my mind begins to wonder what is happening in the image. It has the beauty of a doll, yet there is a darkness there. 
I love this image, it looks like a native American Indianeven though I took this image of a painting in New Zealand. At first the colour around his/her neck looks like some woven jewellery but as you look closer you can see a street image there with a yellow cab. 
Like the mix of media in this
I would like to be able to create a cartoon character of myself.
Cool Image that use photo and graphics
Here parts of the images are zoomed into.
Love these and their bold colour.
By the same designer as above, I like!!
Going to try and recreate this 
Bringing Images and super imposing them to make them look real, want to learn to graphically tattoo an image.
Stinkyfish Street art, love the colours and designs.
