However, if this is your first time coming across this series, we are sure it won’t take too long to get the gist of it. Anton creates 2-panel illustrations of our society’s contradictions, and whether they are super simple or more complex, everything is framed by the phrase “Yes, but.” From hilarious to cringy and, most importantly, relatable, Anton continues to expose our weird habits in the best way.

As I get older, I notice that my mind is increasingly occupied with non-creative, everyday thoughts and worries. They are of no benefit and only make you more tired and anxious. Perhaps I would like to learn from my younger self how to worry and control things less than I do now,” wrote Gudim. The artist responded: “Nowadays, all social media platforms are promoting short vertical video formats, so it’s becoming harder and harder to engage people with comic formats. I would love to master video formats as well as 3D animation. In general, I am open to any format: I’ve already tried frame-by-frame 2D animation and AI, and I’m also experimenting with music, playing in a small rock band. I’m attracted to many creative fields, and if I have the strength and time, I will definitely try myself in each one.” Gudim shared: “You may have heard, but all this time, I had a full-time job in an office, where I worked in telecommunications as an engineer. This year has been special for me: I decided to leave the office, and now I am a full-time artist. Doubts about my career have followed me throughout my creative journey—both in the years when I earned nothing and in the years when I had solo exhibitions and books. Life in today’s world is very unstable: just watch the news to realize that nothing can be planned even a year ahead. That’s precisely why it took me so long to make drawing my main profession. Art and entertainment are not the most important things for people during hard times, and the world is undoubtedly going through a difficult period. Any upheaval will affect artists first, and I understand that.” Never keep eggs in the fridge Follow Bored Panda on Google News! Follow us on Flipboard.com/@boredpanda!
