Answer is from teacher..

Answer will vary but may include the following: The image is an Asian artwork, specifically a Japanese ukiyo-e scene. In the image there are men carrying either some type of cargo in boxes or baskets of food, across a bridge. Most of the men pictured are walking in two rows, in a sort of procession. Houses are visible in the background. Orange, blue, and yellow are the main colors used. There isn't much variation in the width of the lines. The shapes are fairly geometric. The image is framed on either side by what appears to be a gate or fence. This is an example of a woodblock print, also called a woodcut. Its registration points were likely located in the corners of the woodblock.

A comic book can be defined as commercial narrative art, using one image after another to create a sequential narrative.

There are several styles of comic books, such as superheroes, Japanese manga, autobiographies, etc.

According to comic book artists, there are techniques that must be followed to build a comic book that engages and excites the reader. They are skills in illustrating human anatomy, perspective and visual narrative.

A strong sense of light and color is needed in comic artists to illustrate the movement of characters, who may be running, flying, talking and performing essential actions that continue the narrative.

The artists therefore use a simplistic and reader-friendly illustration, with focal points on the panels demarcated by the presence of light and color, shadows, midtones, and visuals that give story progression and emotions to the characters.
