quarks visualization
Does any body know how quarks are formed? and why they always in fraction numbers like 1/3, 2/3. Since charge are always quantized. does this mean quarks are not quantized.?.

Hi astro2cosmos! Welcome to PF!
 "Quantized" charge just means that it comes in multiples of a fixed amount … in this case, 1/3. And quarks are probably fundamental, like electrons: not formed of anything.

If you look at the atomic orbitals, you will see charged clouds of partial charge too:
