Digital Tools has Given a New Life to Illustrators and Designers says Ramanjit Kaur Gabri!

With the dawn of digitalisation came a new era. It was a second life for many designers, believes caricature artist Ramanjit Kaur Gabri. Here, she tells us how to make the most of this exciting time to learn and create.

Through Photoshop, designers are born again.

Most designers today started their design journey with a pencil and paper. The use of water, oil and acrylic colours were fun and inspiring back in those days. But truly, the artist was born again when Photoshop came into effect, bringing with it possibilities that one couldn't even imagine. Digital art was what everyone wanted to do all of a sudden. They were painting, not with a brush but with a brush tool. There's been no looking back since then.

Going to class means logging on to your computer.

The teacher speaks and shows some videos. At the end of the class, he/she gives you an assignment. After you hand it in, the teacher points out mistakes and gives you suggestions on how to make it better. Sounds like a normal classroom, but it's actually the online classes held by globally famous US artist, Mr. Jason Seiler. That's the world for you today. You could be anywhere in the world, and attend such classes and bene t from them immensely.

Got to be perfect to stand out from the crowd.

The digital space is where everyone is these days. On one hand, it makes life easy, on the other it makes it dif cult. How do you stand out? What do you do differently? The answer is to not get, distracted, and simply focus on your own talent to achieve perfection in it. If one's efficient and dedicated, then being noticed and picked up easily amongst a crowd, is not too hard. Once that level is achieved, success follows.

India is getting there.

If you've got the talent, you needn't follow anyone. Rather, others will follow you. Whether, it's Indian artists or artists abroad, each one is talented and inching forward in the sphere's of their world. India is presently in the developmental stage when it comes to design, it's going through a gestation phase. As the time is changing, and India gets more acquainted with the digital medium, our designers will also be making a mark at an international level. They will be born again.
