Artist Creates 30 Comics About Everyday Life That Might Be Too Real For Comfort
Interview With ArtistMeet the self-proclaimed "Potato Queen," a comic artist who has taken the internet by storm with her "Relatable Doodles." Her comics hilariously capture those everyday moments we all experience but rarely talk about. From the agony of choosing between staying in bed or getting up, to the universal struggle of resisting that extra slice of pizza, her doodles hit the nail on the head every time. As she puts it, "I like to draw comics that are... relatable (hence the name)."
Recently, she's hopped onto a new trend, launching "The Froggy Club," a passion project where she combines her love for art and making people happy by creating frog-themed stickers. She shares, "I love stickers and I hope you do too!" However, life has thrown some unexpected challenges her way, leading her to pause the club temporarily. She assures her fans, "I'll be back when things are okay again. Until then, stay safe and look after yourself."

Known for her love of potatoes and depicting awkward moments, the artist introduces themselves with characteristic self-deprecation: "I'm Relatable Doodles! (wow what a creative name rolls eyes) I like to draw comics that are... relatable (hence the name)."
Her comics often exaggerate daily "problems" for comedic effect, aiming to elicit a chuckle or a nod of recognition from readers. She expresses this intent, hoping that audiences will "nod along, chuckle a little or perhaps say 'yo that's me' to some of these comics."
In her latest work, she has introduced a new theme featuring frogs, adding a wholesome twist to her already relatable content. She invites readers to follow along, stating, "I make relatable and sometimes wholesome comics involving frogs, so if you want more froggy comics please keep up to date with my Instagram."
Despite the passage of time and evolution in her art style, the artist definitely maintains a consistent connection with her audience. Reflecting on her journey, she notes, "I posted on here around 8 years ago and my art style has changed quite a bit, so I thought it was nice when you reached out to talk to me again!"
Realizing no one has a clue, we're all just faking it, and that the anxiety you feel is because there's a genuine crisis, there always has been, and no one knows how to fix it.
