Artist Illustrates All The Daily Struggles She Runs Into With Fun And Quirky Comics (21 New Pics)
Interview With ArtistToday, we’re thrilled to welcome back Indian illustrator Akshara Ashok, who you might remember from our previous posts. If you’re not familiar with her work yet, Akshara is redefining the boundaries of digital art with her bold and vibrant comics. By blending Indian tradition with modern themes, her art fearlessly addresses taboo topics that many girls and women face—such as periods, body hair, and women’s hygiene—everyday issues that are common yet rarely discussed openly.
If, like us, you adore the funny and thought-provoking comics by Ashok, we have some exciting news for you! The Indian artist revealed that she’s about to release her first book, titled 'The Little Book Of Big Girl Things.'. Here’s what the author shared with us so far: “It’s a compilation of my most loved comics and a few short essays. The book talks about adulting, relationships, body image, mental health, and self-discovery.” While the rest is still under wraps, we’re already thrilled and can’t wait for its release, anticipated at the end of January. Stay tuned!
Until then, scroll down to enjoy a fresh selection of her latest comics and discover more about the artist and the meaningful work she creates.

Our cat loved my husband to pieces and slept next to him most nights. But I can remember at least 3 occasions when Rick didn't wake up or love on Miso when wanted. On those occasions, I was startled awake by the sound of Rick's muffled curses because Miso decided to get his attention by sitting on his face/head! Certainly woke him up! 😆

I only shave in summer when I know I'm going to be wearing shorts or something And that's only because Of my anxiety and The fear ofpeople talking behind my back.
I liked these, and the self awareness of women policing women to protect the individual, but propagate the societal harm. Also, the struggles of public toilets which are way too relatable.
