Pumpkin is a lovely orange cat who loves participating in all family adventures. Long walks, kayaking, and hiking—this orange feline is up to any task as long as he enjoys the company of his brother Moustachio and their owner Tia.

That’s why Tia thought that her orange cat would also enjoy a short a trip to the local beach, so she took Pumpkin and Moustachio there for the first time. Little did she know that she would discover something new and pretty hilarious about her pet.

“He actually really loved the beach but we soon found out he didn’t love the wind. The faces he was making, we’d never seen anything like it before, so we were taking pictures and videos,” his owner told The Dodo.

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a teacher, especially during these unusual times of lockdown and pandemic? Well, thanks to a primary school teacher from Galway, Ireland, we’ll finally get to find out what a typical day in the life of a teacher looks like.

Colm Cuffe is a young primary school teacher who is very passionate about education, but he also has a knack for drawing and spends most of his free time creating funny illustrations. His witty and hilarious comics capture the struggles and joys of being a teacher through funny classroom scenes.

The artist wrote for Bored Panda that both students and teachers seem to enjoy his illustrations because they all can relate to weird and funny situations his comics depict.

“I hope that these comics humorously illustrate the hard work, dedication, and care that teachers provide our students every day,” Cruffe said.

Cruffe has been posting his artwork on social media since 2016 and now he has more than 13,000 followers that admire his work. You don’t have to be a teacher or a student to enjoy this artist’s comics, so make sure to check out the photos below.

Anita Myrvang is a graphic designer, illustrator, and creative mind behind the About Last Night Instagram page where she’s publishing her funny, sometimes bizarre, illustrations. An interesting thing about Anita’s work is that her illustrations are some sort of therapy because all of them are inspired by her dreams.

This UK-based artist has always had extremely vivid and weird dreams that later turned into a serious sleep disorder when she became an adult.

“Vivid dreams combined with night terrors and PTSD-induced nightmares made for an exhausting mix, to say the least, and every single day, I would dread going to sleep, thinking “what is going to happen tonight?” Some nights, I couldn’t fall asleep at all,” Anita told Bored Panda.

At least one good thing came out of this difficult situation when Anita’s boyfriend suggested she should start drawing her dreams and posting them online. This is how About Last Night came to life. Even though the artist doubted that anyone would be interested in her work, she soon garnered a following and has even turned her illustrations into a book.

Lucas Turnbloom, a cartoonist from Southern California, and his wife adopted a cute and playful little cat back in 2017. Little did they know that this event and their furry new friend would change their lives for better and inspire Lucas to write one of his best and most popular comics.

His black and white comics called How To Cat is mostly based on Sweetie’s adventures and mischief. Now, this sweet fur ball has thousands of followers on social media who can’t wait for Lucas to publish new funny comics.

“The comic was originally intended to be an inside joke for my wife and I, but she insisted that I put it on the internet and share it with the world. The strip seems to have found an audience on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter – which is incredible,” Lucas said to Bored Panda.

Sweetie has changed several homes before the couple finally found her in a shelter and gave her a loving forever home. Now she’s inspiring Lucas and his followers from all around the world and bringing joy into our lives.

Kelly Abeln creates relatable content that’s neatly packed. Defining her style as “autobiographical comics” she shares her illustrations through Instagram, where she has gained quite a massive following. Aside from her comics, she also works full time as a freelance illustrator and runs an Etsy shop where you can find her work printed on paper stationery as well as textile.

“Sometimes I think with autobiographical work, ‘Oh, this is just something that happened to me and no one else will care,’” she relayed in an interview with  Shrill Society. “But I really like reading autobiographical work, and that’s what I connect to. So I try to keep that in mind that the personal is universal. If you tell something really personal and focus on the feelings of it, then other people can relate to it.”

Her illustrations aren’t meant to look realistic. Loose and quirky, their wonkiness adds to their humoristic edge. And much like her characters, her stories are meant to be taken lightly (though most often than not, they address serious issues).

A common theme throughout her work seems to be the hardships of growing up. “I have a lot of stories in my head of growing up,” says Abeln. “Once I started making comics, I found they were the perfect way to get the stories all out and release them. I don’t want to forget them and forget how I felt.”

“When I think about memorable autobiographical experiences, the growing up years are what stand out the most to me because I think being a teenager is the craziest transition period that people go through,” she adds. “Every year of being a teenager feels like five years in terms of growth compared to the rest of your life. It’s a chaotic and exciting time.”

When Gil Kahana and Humberto De Sousa met while studying Communication Design at Central Saint Martins in London, they couldn’t have imagined that their friendship would blossom into a business specializing in humoristic socks.

“It all began one night many years ago,” they write on their website. “We were joking around and started to ponder a very important question: ‘What if our socks could talk?’ It was one of those light bulb moments, but once the spark had been ignited we simply couldn’t turn it off…”

Now their online store features more than 30 quirky sock designs, each with their own unique personality and own playful name (Ernestoe Hemingway for example, or our personal favorite: David Sock-Knee). Their socks have been created by designers all over the globe, with each pair produced in Europe from combed cotton.

“It usually starts with the name,” explained the pair in an interview with Yes I’m a Designer, where they talked about their creative process. “We love to use puns like ‘The Sockfather’ or ‘David Sock-Knee’. Then we commission the character illustration and wait for sketches, give feedback, get revisions and repeat until we have a design we’re happy to produce. At this point we send the design to our producers, commission product photography, upload the product to our shop, notify our sellers, post them on social/email campaigns and TA-DA!”

Their stated mission? “To inject more fun into people’s lives through our characterful ChattyFeet socks.”

“I really like using chalk because of its impermanence,” the artist shared with Bored Panda. “Hose it down and get ready for the next creation. I’m fortunate to have a large smooth cement area on which to draw. The drawings saying Rocketboom were for that internet blog.”

Gemma Correll describes herself as a “cartoonist, writer, illustrator, and all-round small person.” With a few books to her name, features in publications like The New York Times and Oxford University Press, and regular comics on The Nib and in The Observer Sunday Magazine – Correll has clearly embraced her artistic calling.

But funnily enough, the saught after creative never treated illustrating as a feasible job. “To be honest, I don’t feel like an ‘illustration sensation,'” she admitted in an interview with the Ohh Deer Blog. “I’m just at home, drawing and eating peanut butter out of the jar most of the time. I never expected to make a career out of art and even now that I have, I’m still amazed that I actually get paid for my doodles.”

Like most artist, Correll’s passion for doodling sparked at an early age. “I made my own comics at school (I photocopied them in the school office, sellotaped penny sweets to the front cover and sold them to my classmates for 20p), and I had a monthly comic page in my church newsletter,” she recalled.

“I knew that it could be a career, but I didn’t really think that it was something I could do – everyone I knew had a practical job, like being a nurse or a teacher, so I thought I would probably do something like that,” she added. Still, she would spend most of her time drawing and writing and ended up at art school. “But even then I didn’t think that I could make a career from art – I planned to become a teacher,” she admitted. “It wasn’t until I was actually getting commissioned for illustration jobs that I finally accepted the fact that I had become ‘an illustrator'”.

Now a full-blown illustrator (no quotation marks!) she has amassed over 675k followers on Instagram. Quite a feat for an artist who illustrates while eating peanut butter out of the jar. Take a look at some of her quirky illustrations in the gallery below:

Andrés J. Colmenares describes himself as a graphic designer and a self-taught illustrator who makes adorable comics on the Internet. The Colombia-born artist’s project called Wawawiwa began in 2009 first in Spanish, and now in English.

Wawawiwa was born in 2009 as a result of an obsession with drawing and writing jokes,” the artist shared on his personal website. “My work is mostly gags inspired by everyday life with cute and positive characters. At the end, it’s just an escape to the ongoing harsh realities of life.”

According to the artist, his biggest support is his wife Viviana.

“I do all this, next to my amazing wife Viviana,” Colmenares added. “She is the other half in this pie! We would like to say that Wawawiwa is a big visual hug that tickles you at the same time, but we won’t.”

McLaughlin is a big fan of being eco-friendly in our fashion habits. “I would go to thrift stores and try to find something that I could make something new out of,” she told WWD. With her artistic projects, she invites everyone to think about how they can use things they already have at home before going out to buy something new.

When Gil Kahana and Humberto De Sousa met while studying Communication Design at Central Saint Martins in London, they couldn’t have imagined that their friendship would blossom into a business specializing in humoristic socks.

“It all began one night many years ago,” they write on their website. “We were joking around and started to ponder a very important question: ‘What if our socks could talk?’ It was one of those light bulb moments, but once the spark had been ignited we simply couldn’t turn it off…”

Now their online store features more than 30 quirky sock designs, each with their own unique personality and own playful name (Ernestoe Hemingway for example, or our personal favorite: David Sock-Knee). Their socks have been created by designers all over the globe, with each pair produced in Europe from combed cotton.

“It usually starts with the name,” explained the pair in an interview with Yes I’m a Designer, where they talked about their creative process. “We love to use puns like ‘The Sockfather’ or ‘David Sock-Knee’. Then we commission the character illustration and wait for sketches, give feedback, get revisions and repeat until we have a design we’re happy to produce. At this point we send the design to our producers, commission product photography, upload the product to our shop, notify our sellers, post them on social/email campaigns and TA-DA!”

Their stated mission? “To inject more fun into people’s lives through our characterful ChattyFeet socks.”

Jerry McGregor is an England-born artist and designer now living and working on the Big Island in Hawaii. McGregor, who grew up in Southern California, describes himself as a “very creative and ingenious fellow” who likes creating art by using chalk.

“I really like using chalk because of its impermanence,” the artist shared with Bored Panda. “Hose it down and get ready for the next creation. I’m fortunate to have a large smooth cement area on which to draw. The drawings saying Rocketboom were for that internet blog.”

If you are interested to see some of his drawings, scroll down and take a look at the Facebook gallery below. Which image is your favorite? Have you ever created a masterpiece of your own with chalks?

Gemma Correll’s Quirky Illustrations Are Highly Relatable https://5dwallpaper.com/gemma-corrells-quirky-illustrations-are-highly-relatable/ Mon, 12 Aug 2019 10:02:03 +0000 https://5dwallpaper.com/?p=105654 Gemma Correll describes herself as a “cartoonist, writer, illustrator, and all-round small person.” With a few books to her name, features in publications like The New York Times and Oxford University Press, and regular comics on The Nib and in The Observer Sunday Magazine – Correll has clearly embraced her artistic calling.

Gemma Correll describes herself as a “cartoonist, writer, illustrator, and all-round small person.” With a few books to her name, features in publications like The New York Times and Oxford University Press, and regular comics on The Nib and in The Observer Sunday Magazine – Correll has clearly embraced her artistic calling.

But funnily enough, the saught after creative never treated illustrating as a feasible job. “To be honest, I don’t feel like an ‘illustration sensation,'” she admitted in an interview with the Ohh Deer Blog. “I’m just at home, drawing and eating peanut butter out of the jar most of the time. I never expected to make a career out of art and even now that I have, I’m still amazed that I actually get paid for my doodles.”

Like most artist, Correll’s passion for doodling sparked at an early age. “I made my own comics at school (I photocopied them in the school office, sellotaped penny sweets to the front cover and sold them to my classmates for 20p), and I had a monthly comic page in my church newsletter,” she recalled.

“I knew that it could be a career, but I didn’t really think that it was something I could do – everyone I knew had a practical job, like being a nurse or a teacher, so I thought I would probably do something like that,” she added. Still, she would spend most of her time drawing and writing and ended up at art school. “But even then I didn’t think that I could make a career from art – I planned to become a teacher,” she admitted. “It wasn’t until I was actually getting commissioned for illustration jobs that I finally accepted the fact that I had become ‘an illustrator'”.

Now a full-blown illustrator (no quotation marks!) she has amassed over 675k followers on Instagram. Quite a feat for an artist who illustrates while eating peanut butter out of the jar. Take a look at some of her quirky illustrations in the gallery below:

Andrés J. Colmenares describes himself as a graphic designer and a self-taught illustrator who makes adorable comics on the Internet. The Colombia-born artist’s project called Wawawiwa began in 2009 first in Spanish, and now in English.

Wawawiwa was born in 2009 as a result of an obsession with drawing and writing jokes,” the artist shared on his personal website. “My work is mostly gags inspired by everyday life with cute and positive characters. At the end, it’s just an escape to the ongoing harsh realities of life.”

According to the artist, his biggest support is his wife Viviana.

“I do all this, next to my amazing wife Viviana,” Colmenares added. “She is the other half in this pie! We would like to say that Wawawiwa is a big visual hug that tickles you at the same time, but we won’t.”

Scroll down and take a look at his adorable and heartwarming comics below.
