Description

Comics have been popular for decades with their variations and derivative products, including merchandise and adaptations. One type of comic that is often found on social media, magazines, or news media is the comic strip. Comic strips are usually used to entertain viewers. It is also sometimes used to convey an idea in a light, entertaining, and humorous way. Not many people know, but many illustrators and comic artists have used free and open-source software like Inkscape for their works.

In this workshop, I will share about:
- a brief about comic strips and my projects related to them (comic strip, design, illustration) that made with FOSS
- introduction about Inkscape and its tools
- step by step to create comic strips with Inkscape on Ubuntu

I hope this talk can inspire the audience to create their own comic, explore their potential in the visual field, and contribute to the FOSS community with their skills.
