Fan art, which can be singular or plural, can be defined as graphic representations of various media forms that have numerous fans. Many types of fan art exist; people write stories, plays, or screenplays about characters or worlds that have already been created. As the name 'fan' suggests, those who are significant fans of a certain character, show, fictional world or the like usually produce this work. With fan art, instead of writing, artists usually paint, draw, or use other graphic forms to copy, represent, explore or extend the life of a created character or world.

There are many examples of fan art, and these may start when kids are little and want to draw their favourite cartoon character. Those gifted in art may learn exactly how to draw or recreate something beloved from a comic book, TV show, video game or movie. One common area of fan art is reproductions of art based on Japanese manga and on anime. People may use a combination of drawing and writing to create further adventures of a comic book character.
Kiki's Delivery Service
In addition to art inspired by manga or anime, very popular books and movies tend to be the inspiration for tonnes of fanart. For instance, the Star Wars series, Marvel series and others can stir up the souls of artists so that they create numerous representations of the characters or world. There are many online sites that feature fanart museums or galleries. Those who complete a piece of art may submit it to these sites for possible inclusion. Usually the only reward for them is sharing their love of a particular fictional thing with others.
