HOW TO MAKE: Glitch Art
The other day, I came across a new style of art, called ‘glitch art’. I decided to try my hand at it, and immediately fell in love! Not only is it fun to make and aesthetically pleasing to look at, it is also easy enough for anyone to make. Glitch art can be a fun pastime during the lockdown for both art-lovers, and those who just want to try it!
All you need:
- A pencil
- A black pen
- A blue pen
- A red pen
- A whitener or white pen
- An eraser
The first step, is to draw anything of your choice with a pencil. I have drawn the well-known cartoon character Sponge-Bob, but this glitch technique can be used on any drawing!
Step two is to outline your pencil drawing with a black pen or marker.
The next step is to outline the drawing with a red pen or marker, but slightly to the left of the original drawing.
The fourth step is to outline the drawing with the blue pen or marker, but slightly to the right this time. After this step, you can see the glitch effect starting to come out!
For the next step, add some small lines in and out of the drawing with the blue and red pens. This adds considerably to the glitchy effect!
The final step is to use the whitener or white pen to add small gaps between some of the lines.
And there you have it! This technique can be used to add a nice effect to any drawing that you make.

Dalgona Coffee is a fun and easy beverage to make, and it tastes delicious too! Ever since the lockdown started, people all over the world have started whipping up Dalgona Coffee, but my parents told me that Indians have been making the same thing for decades, although we called it ‘Pheti Hui Coffee’. This drink is so simple and easy to make that anyone can make it at any time!

1. In a large bowl, whip the water, coffee, and sugar until foamy and a light colour.
2. Fill 2/3rds of each glass with milk, and put two cubes of ice in each glass.
3. Top it off with the coffee mixture and serve!
