What is the difference between a comic artist and a cartoonist?

Whereas cartoonists' work is short form, either a single panel with a caption or several panels with some dialogue, the comic book artists' work follows a narrative; they create images in sequence to align with a story.

Slide 3 - Tekstslide

A comic is a medium, employing panels to tell a story sequentially; whereas a cartoon is a style, usually recognized as whimsical in nature with exaggerated elements.

A cartoonist draws illustrations that convey a particular message or idea. The illustrations that a cartoonist draws are called cartoons. They typically can stand on their own and often have a specific purpose, such as inviting consumers to purchase a product or providing a political opinion. For example, a cartoonist might draw a political cartoon to offer their own commentary on a current event.

A comic artist designs the visual aspects of comics and graphic novels, including the panels, characters, settings and text. Most comic artists draw the illustrations for comics that they don't write the story or dialogue for, which means they typically have to find ways to incorporate text from other writers and story artists when creating each page.

 most often appear in newspapers, magazines and online publications.
Comic book:  use sequences of comic strips that appear on full pages to convey narratives. 
Graphic novel:  a long-form comic book that tells a complex story using several pages of panels. 

Slide 4 - Tekstslide

Comic strip: A comic strip is a single line of two or more panels that tells a story within its concise format. Comic strips most often appear in newspapers, magazines and online publications.
Comic book: Comic books use sequences of comic strips that appear on full pages to convey narratives. You can typically read and purchase comic books at comic bookshops, bookstores and digitally through online retailers.
Graphic novel: A graphic novel is a long-form comic book that tells a complex story using several pages of panels. Graphic novels are most similar to comic books, but they're typically much longer and might take more time to read.
Authorial Intent

Slide 5 - Tekstslide

 Authorial intent refers to an author's intent as it is encoded in their work. Authorial intentionalism is the view, according to which an author's intentions should constrain the ways in which it is properly interpreted.
