I Draw Relatable Comics About Petunia Who Helps Me To Look At Life From A Humorous Perspective
I created this quirky little character before turning 23.
I was quite lost, like a lot of people in their twenties, but I wanted to look at it from a humorous perspective. I started posting comics about her on Instagram and I soon found out that a lot of people related to them.
Petunia has become a part of myself that I learned to not only accept but love, and I always have her whenever I want to make a bad pun or explore different aspects of my personality without feeling too naked!

40 shades of tired. Been there, done that, too tired to put the t-shirt on.
Because responsibilities will exist, with or without your attention.

Apparently you’ve never been to Canada! On the last day of summer we had the biggest snowfall so far this year!
Not every where. In Ottawa/Gatineau it was 28° celsuis before humidex (then we got it by a tornado).
Load More Replies...Actual tornado in Ottawa/Gatineau with high winds and an a thunderstorm followed by lots of rain (was hot in the afternoon though).
Load More Replies...I’m a Cancer so I am too self-conscious to wear anything about my sign because “Cancer” is also a disease.
My sign is Scorpio, and most people avoid them like a rattlesnake.
Load More Replies...I'm anxious and socially awkward because I'm a Virgo! What's your sign????
I'm Libra! The balance between feeling like s**t and feeling like nothing!
Load More Replies...I need this on a t-shirt. And a hoodie. And a nice blouse to wear to the company holiday party. And...
In school, one of my teachers thought I am a snob/a misanthropic a*****e or something who doesn't want to lower herself to talk to other students, but I was just so shy and scared. She never said it to me, I had to hear it from someone else much later.
Teachers who gossip about students are the worst, sorry you had that happen to you.
Load More Replies...I was told SO many times that people thought I was "cold". Took me decades to just start asking questions of people, so they could talk about themselves, whereupon they thought I was OK.
That is my technique at all social events! -- and I learned that it's fascinating to observe people talking about themselves
Load More Replies...I have a weird period. It's not a morning person, and it takes a break after 4 days, then half heartedly starts again. Then it decides it wants to happen again after 2 weeks.
Load More Replies...Because a lot of people who suffer from anxiety create scenarios in their minds that aren't actually happening, so they stay in a state of upset because of the possibility that the scenario could be true. And unfortunately it's not a healthy way to live. So being able to recognize the upset is caused by something that actually happened vs something they think has happened is very important.
Load More Replies...YES! This was me last night. My mom called at 7:45pm and asked what I was doing. I said "I'm in bed" and she said "ALREADY?" like I was a mad woman. Yep, warm cozy and going sleep. Zzzz.
I'm nocturnal, so going to bed at the crack of 7 AM it's very normal in me.
Me realizing my awkward sense of humor makes everyone else in the room uncomfortable.
But that magical moment when someone gets it...
Load More Replies...I am so close to both that sometimes other people can't tell either and laugh awkwardly
Trust me, you do not want me to start elaborating about everything which is going on inside my head. So the abridged “tired” version is a lot better.
HAHAHAHAHAHA I've literally handed out her business cards like, "You have unsolved issues that you obviously need to work through on your own. Call Blabla.. She'll help."
The second half took some time to load I was almost sure it would be her dog chewing up her shoes or something.
Totally my husband... he just started complaining about his hair again, I dread the day he comes home as a coconut.
My husband has beautiful thick curly hair...when he cuts it a little part of me dies. Ok I'm being a little melodramatic but why won't he let it grow a little more into its full glory?!
I laughed so hard...I thought it was a potato but hen I read coconut...gosh
Meh, I say straight out I don't like clubs/discoes, and offer another acceptable option (if it's about company, rather than the place). It's not the music or dancing that I don't like, it's the place. Too many sweaty people enclosed in a small room... No thanks. Sounds like rush hour to me.
That's nice for you! I hope it keeps improving!
Load More Replies...When it comes to seasons, I'm quite the opposite to the majority. I get spring asthenia. The light, sounds, warmth, activity puts my body into a complete shock after the cold and dark winter days. I am usually a night creature and prefer negative temperatures, so I absolutely hate spring and summer. Can't wait for the gloomy days, so nice!
My husband is a bit like you in the temperature area. He likes to say he "needs to be kept cryogenically preserved." He loves and thrives in the colder temps, even tho it means his extremities are like ice due to poor circulation. His body has never been able to manage warmer temps. If it gets much above 70 F or 20 C, he's useless.
Load More Replies...Me every day. I always wake up way earlier than I "need" to, so I roll back over. Next thing I know, it's later than I planned and I'm groggy from too much "sleep". :-p
Oh no, me too! I woke up at 6am, rolled over for a few more minutes and BAM it was noon!
Load More Replies...I tip my hat to you. I've always wanted to do it, never had the guts 😑
Load More Replies...On a sick leave and totally succumbing to anxiety and depression because I'm not busy. Too much time to think. Good thing holidays are always planned to the brim, only downside... I come back from holidays tired as a dog.
So other girls(whom doesn't exist anyway so i can insult them) have it b***h waves and Petunia has it beach wave….
*that sound of a slender metal rod colliding with the human skull* *darkness*
Load More Replies...Me though; "I'm not competitive." *five seconds later* "FIGHT ME ALL OF YOU. YOU CHEATED. I WILL PERSONALLY TAKE ALL OF YOU DOWN."
This one is so me...It's like seeing how much money i've left for the month and "Oh, ok i can spend that much to get this, and this and this" and then everyime around the 20th i start to have to eat cheap because "God i won't make it""
No use rationalizing with your brain, since it will be the one to determine who wins the match.
wait, is that quacomaole scented candle, damn avocados are taking over the world
Just put a bit of hot water in it again and it shall be fine, i often take baths for one hour or more, as i'm reading in it ^_^
Load More Replies...And... it's getting cold? Drain half of the tub. Add searing hot water. Soak for another half hour. I've done this too many times.
Everyone has their own style. I like it, I can relate to so many of these haha.
lol they made my day,could not relate more with her,myself at age 17- well now....
Very nice ones, i love the one with "awkward" and "funny"! Would you allow me to use it if i credit you? And anyway congrats for these, they are really nicely done!
What is with her pupils, why is each one pointing to opposite direction?
These are terrific -- and some of them really would look good on a t-shirt, you should think about trying it out!!
The three at the same time, but the boobs are real tho
