Manga is a type of comic developed in Japan in the late 19th century. The word 'manga' is composed from two Japanese words; 'whimsical' (man) and 'pictures' (ga).
Year 6 children were set the task to create a manga style portrait of themselves using pencils and watercolours. Take a look at the incredible results! Well done guys! :)
While the art can be incredibly realistic or cartoonish, characters often have large eyes (female characters usually have larger eyes than male characters), small noses, tiny mouths and flat faces.
In Japan, people of all ages read manga!
