How Swine Flu-ent Are You ?

Posted in Funoon Magazine, My Art on July 11th, 2009 by Hussain

So I decided to join the crowd and talk swine flu. It was the first thing that came to my mind when the editors of Funoon magazine asked for a contribution. I made this drawing along with an article named “Swine in-Flu-ence”.

I wanted to make the drawing simple and easy to understand so I intended to use comics art. This drawing is a good example of how beautiful & powerful comics can be. It shows a group of people running behind a pig to make a tasty dinner out of it. All of the sudden the pig goes “Hatchoo”. Then we see that the situation has been reversed and now the pig (which obviously got infected with swine flu) is chasing the people to get his revenge.

S.O.S. From the Earth

Posted in Funoon Magazine, My Art on May 3rd, 2009 by Hussain
This drawing was part of an article named “S.O.S. From the Earth“. It talked about the dangers of plastic bags & how harmful they can be to the environment. The article was written by me & it came out on the 2nd issue of Funoon E-Magazine which is issued by BankMuscat Arts committee.

The drawing shows a plastic bag trying to cut down the “Earth” tree while “Animal” fruits are falling from the tree. It also shows some humans helping out the bag. Its drawn on paper with pencil then inked & after that i added some photoshop touches. the last part of the article says “It shows how human beings are contributing with the use of plastic bags to the destruction of the earth environment in spite of an enormous resistance by the earth. But for how long ? even the earth’s resistance has a limit.“
