Looking at these beautiful drawings, you see stories. Some are clear, some left untold, but all touching. Nine months ago Bored Panda introduced you to the deep drawings of Japanese illustrator Avogado6. The artist chooses to keep most of his identity a mystery, and not much is known about the person behind the illustrations. "I am an ordinary person who likes chemistry," he writes on his Twitter profile, but as you will see, his works filled with profound meaning are far from ordinary.
Avogado6 manages to create sentimental, vivid images by drawing feelings and emotions that are hard to describe with words. The drawing ideas might look simple at first glance, but they have incredibly deep meanings and, usually, are quite dark.
The artist has over a million followers on Twitter and has even published three books.

Everyone has great beautiful dreams for themselves, this one describes a disappointment of not achieving your dreams.
like discovering at 50 you have ASD and so were born different but look the same ...
My son has been autistic since birth. Being born different is not a bad thing. It just means that some things are more challenging for you. 😊

Haven't the foggiest what it's supposed to be about(if there is any one thing) but that's a very cool picture
This one is not coming to me at all, maybe its about beauty and ugliness and society.
I took this as what happens during abortion. you're killing a person before they even get a chance to be the beautiful butterfly!
Don't make this political. Also, not taking an abortion could kill a mother or tear apart a family. Don't just think of it on one side.

This one is somehow so creepy and ominuous. I wonder what the point is .. the feeling that everyone and everything is waiting for your mistake? One step aside and game over?
Very powerful and strong work! I am touched by every single piece of it.
This one is so sad. I hate seeing parents with their little ones who just want their attention.. I hope to NOT be one of these parents. My children will ALWAYS be more important than my phone.
I see it as an isolation in her own world. The girl is so concentrated on her plans and goals (documents in her arms, money attached to her oxygen bottle) that she doesn't have time to enjoy the world outside her box and just live on. Maybe she even doesn't want to because it feels safer not to go out?
I was getting sick of these, because they always were about the evils of technology and how we don't communicate anymore. These are actually really original and really good.
It's even more true in Japan, where people communicate less and less... Even in the family circle, communicating gets more and more difficult, although not reaching the level of insanity as in Korea.

I agree. The author chooses to focus on death instead of embracing life. Yes, we will meet death one day, but there is no reason to rush toward it.

He may have had some bad experiences in his life. Maybe this is his way of dealing with it. For example, a lot of people with PTSD will use humour.
Load More Replies...I'm worried for the artist. Is he okay? Does he need help? How can we help him?
I am only picture 10 and I already feel like slitting my wrists. WAY WAY TOO DARK. For Gods sake Bored Panda LIGHTEN UP.
Not everyone use the same drawing style in Japan, eh... At least, no more than everywhere else. I could also say "why do comics look all the same?" to me, as an European...
