Hello, Bored Panda readers!
Here is some new work I made in the last year. I keep traveling and working as a digital nomad illustrator.
I lived in Bali almost all last year and recently I moved to Colombia, in Medellin.
Some of these illustrations are made on commission for clients, some are personal drawings based on my interests.

Nice take on the cover of Police's single "Can't stand losing you" ;-)

Keep Your Cool, No Matter What
It look suspiciously like a joint the good woman light up. Puff puff pass.
I mean, she Would look like that if shes's cast the flame freezing charm..
Too Smart?
I'm guessing that it's meant to depict social media pressures to look good, to look like you're having a great life. Many people are watching you on your phone.
It could be a double meaning. Big brother is watching you symbolized through the eye but on the other hand we made it pretty easy for him to watch us through our phones hence the iPhone and her head as the pupil.

This has many layers. She’s using the smart phone as the “window to the world”, and it’s looking right back at her. It’s how she gets her information and how she exposes herself. The fact that her head seems to make the pupil of the phone’s eye suggests that she’s so reliant on the smart phone that not only is all her information there for the taking, but the phone and her use of it has become part of her very identity.
You've been watched thru your phone or that you see the world thru your iphones or social media
It's A Tough World Out There!
Add bags of heavy bricks for them to carry for their student loans they are bringing with them.
Pretentious comparison. No college grads difficulty getting employment is in any way similar to the circumstance of those soldiers making the Normandy landings.

"Political Correctness Is Fascism Pretending To Be Manners" - George Carlin
Another definition of political correctness: Claiming it is possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
What some call "political correctness" is nothing more than understanding that it's not OK to use slurs to or about a group of people based on their skin color, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, country of origin, or disability. Any decent person would realize that "political correctness" is just old-fashioned politeness.
I agree. If done correctly, PC is just having manners.
Load More Replies...Your "hate speech" is exactly the BS the caricature is about
Load More Replies...It lets you know exactly who a person is. You would rather they hide their opinion and you have to guess if they're moral or not. You can politely call someone a derogatory comment. That's just etiquette. Not calling someone names as opposed to falling over yourself to not offend them is a wide range. Some people are offended by everything. Being kind is always good but get over yourself if you're offended by everything.
Very accurate and true. No wonder local leftists totally do not get it and are babbling about hate speech and politeness.

"Current Account: A Voluntary Offer To Maintain Your Bank." Ambroise Bierce, The Devils Dictionary
Blue collar workers have mortgages and credit cards. Anyone who puts money in a bank is making the bank rich. They’re using the money you put in to make more money, and they don’t even give you half of a percent of the profit from your own money.

Reminds me of a classic Twilight Zone episode, but the humans were tiny. They crash landed in the attic of a house belonging to a giant woman... who at first seemed like the Earthling. Turns out she was on another planet, and the humans from Earth were the invaders.
Sexual Harassment By A Ceo On Female Employees, Taking Advantage Of His Powerful Position
Seems sexist to make the woman so small compared to the man when they are equal but ok
its showing his tie as a snake towering over her ready to strike, showing how many people with higher job positions take advantange of it.

Right Patrick, sexual abuse never happens unless the perpetrator believes in healthcare. It’s amazing people so dumb live beyond 16. Amazing, Patrick. You’ve done well by yourself by not dying so far.

um a terrorist is (and this is the exact definition) a person who uses violence on civilians to help prove a political claim. How can civilians PROTESTING agianst police officers be terrorists? not to mention they are kinda like the Tank Man, since they are willing to die (and one has died) for what they believe is right. Now its ur choice to decide whether or not they are right, and i refuse to force my opinion upon you. All Im doing is fact checking you. If ur gonna call someone a terrorist, maybe check if they are a terrorist first!
Did I miss something? Where is the reference to terrorism?

There has recently, been more gun shootings and killings, the future looks extremely grim, without serious decisions !!!
On Top And Bottom
This image is sad. I know many homeless people who lost their homes due to family tragedies, or medical problems... Not only for drugs or alcohol. And it's really sad. :(
And once you are there, it's very difficult to rise up out of it.
Load More Replies...This just makes me devastated. Not all homeless people, (adding on to what @Femur! said), lost their homes due to drugs and alcohol. So, the wealthier and more successful people shouldn't put them down for something that was possibly not their fault. Instead, they should help them, give them an opportunity to get their life back.
Right? Everyone forgets about the homeless, the depressed, the soldiers because we're caught up in ourselfs.
I got my problems with this picture too. Like you said it isn't possible for everyone to be on the same level: communism showed that. It's good in theory but doesn't work. The picture could imply that we should take more care about the people on the bottom but that's more in my head than on the picture. It could also imply that it's their own fault for being on the bottom --> the empty bottles. That would be a harsh and untrue though. So I am at a loss here too.

Modern Times
I don't know why, but the look on the man's face just simply breaks my heart. He worked so hard for something, just to be replaced by a robot.
He's Charlie Chaplin. Referenced from a scene in the 1930s film Modern Times.
Load More Replies...Send robots back to where they came from! Coming over taking all the jobs!
This just makes my heart sink, particularly including the Modern Times reference.
I don't know if it's a bad thing in the end. I mean this is the kind of job that destroy workers health. Moreover these jobs are often badly paid and allow to exploit a workforce submitted to the company mood.
I'm sorry, but that's not correct. I lived and worked in the manufacturing world for a lot of years. There are some jobs that have poor pay, sure. But, for the most part, companies know that they have to have skilled labor and they have to, at the least, be competitive in wages to keep them. Otherwise, that knowledge and experience goes out the door and creates a vacuum. Working in manufacturing, I was in my best physical health, between always moving and lifting, etc. In manufacturing, I never struggled to put food on the table or pay the rent. I might not be living luxuriously, I was still living well. And, I had the opportunity to move up and/or get an education, often with the company willing to reimburse at least a portion of the cost.

Load More Replies...This is so sad. Humans really think they can just take control of everything and everyone. We use "excess" animals for experiments, (excess meaning the ones that aren't adopted). I can't understand that. No cat or dog is 'extra' and disposable. Yet we treat them that way. If they're not adopted, they're euthanized or donated to science where they undergo irreversible procedures. We also capture animals and trap them in tiny cages just to look at for our own amusement. Zoos are a form of animal cruelty.
this is actually so sad... is this real? I mean, I know some zoos drug the tigers and lions for tourists, but surely it isn't that bad....
yes it is true! https://www.worldanimalprotection.org/news/exposed-true-scale-thailands-tiger-selfie-tourism

Where The Elephants Roam
Where the elephants roam, as long as they exist, not all killed for their ivory, my heart break, with the thought !!!
Could be like the fourth "Star Trek" movie, where aliens communicated with humpback whales. When the whales went extinct, the aliens came looking for them. So, protect endangered species--you never know which ones the aliens are talking to.
At first I thought this had to do with sounds because elephants can make sounds too low for our ears to hear. But idk..?
