As you might already know, Anežka is celebrated for her hilarious comic series filled with clever humor, witty dialogues, and unexpected twists. During our last interview, the cartoonist shared: “I really hate cliches and believe any true artist should try to constantly challenge the current ideas of anything there is and find new perspectives on all the aspects of the world around us or at least find refreshing combinations of what is already known to us. So I try my best to live by this and fulfill my duty as an artist. And since one’s beliefs tend to shape their actions, I come up with these twists and punchlines.”

Bored Panda wanted to learn more about this wonderful series, so we reached out to Anežka once again to ask her more about her work. This time, we were curious about how the artist develops characters that fit the tone of her comic.
The cartoonist kindly shared with us: “I'd say that every idea deserves its own character designs in order to be delivered as effectively as possible. Even a small thing like hair color could change the outcome. I try to balance between the idea behind the comic and aesthetic color composition.”

When asked about particular artists whose styles she admires, the Czech cartoonist responded: “My number one inspiration is Charles Schulz, the author of the Peanuts comic strip series. The amount of work he produced in his lifetime pushes me forward to keep going. His approach is remarkable, as it offers something to the general public while carrying bits of philosophy in every strip. Not to mention, his jokes and legacy still live on to this day. My goal is to achieve at least a fraction of his greatness. I also enjoy Adult Swim humor but don't limit myself to just that—I thrive on variety.”
The artist also mentioned that most of her comics focus on evoking a sense of cuteness or amusement in the reader. She continued: “I like making people happy. I wish to warm up their soul for a moment since life has the tendency to be difficult. One of the greatest outcomes that is there is making the reader giggle or laugh. That's the best thing I can hope to happen.”
Lastly, we asked Židkova about her personal favorite comic from her series. Here’s what Anežka shared with us: “A comic I enjoyed making the most has a great amount of details and takes place in an orthodox church. There are many icons in the background. It was super fun to research those and analyze the color palettes and other rules of that style.
What makes it stand out, I'd say, is the environment and topic chosen, because many comics that are published in English tend to use more Western settings. In addition to that, it's my style that is easily recognizable and deviates in some aspects from the current trends in comic strip making.”
