Moscow artist Anton Gudim is back on Bored Panda again with his satirical and wry illustrations. He takes simple scenes and transforms them into meaningful messages about our world and the society we live in. In his humorous comics, he makes fun of modern standards of beauty and popular trends and also creates trippy drawings with unexpected endings. You will probably have to stop and think about some of them.
"All ideas came from my surroundings. I just try to take a new look at regular things, I'm always in search of new ideas, always taking notes," the artist shared with Bored Panda.

Memories
If you ask me that's kind of sweet. I imagine him remembering a girlfriend
UGH. WHY would anyone want to remember the decade where the high points were Nirvana ,90210, The presidential hum-job, and dialup internet?
Load More Replies...We asked Gudim what inspired him to create these comics: "Nothing inspires me. This is the way to fight the boredom: to see something new in the regular surroundings." So just like everyone else right now, he's trying to fight boredom and keep himself busy. When describing his drawing style, he said that he tries to go with minimalistic, simple, and understandable illustrations.

Anton Gudim has been trying his whole life. He started creating these hidden meaning comics about 7 years ago and managed to capture the interest of a lot of people. Currently, he has over 890k followers on Instagram.
Holiday Mood
Everyone hates working on the holidays..... But santa has to do every-single-night....
Or he was quarantined at the very beginning of the pandemic.

"I try to do about 2 comics a week, but it's so hard because I have other projects at the same time and also I have a full-time job. I draw almost everyday but for my social networks it's about 1-2 per week."
Relaxing Massage
Kid gets rid of his nervous energy, the guy enjoys the movement up his spine, mom is less stressed since her kid is at least preoccupied.
Though, I always found it was business attired men who were the worse offenders. Not because they had no leg room, but because they were fussing with their laptops, briefcases... and drinks.
Predators
Oh, I see how that works now. Move down in size to the quark , and then I want to see what comes next. Probably right there on the tip of my nose. Or YOUR nose. Or another location.
He creates comics based on life, so it's not hard for him to find topics and themes to illustrate: "Life has a lot of topics, I think there is not enough life to draw all of them."
Adam And Eve
OOOOOH.. its a snaaake... i thought they were tials to... i though that was supposed to be rlly morbid for a sec there🤣

"Be an artist if you want it, but you should know, that it's not simple enough. There are a lot of time of practice behind every piece of art." - said Gudim when asked if he has any advice for upcoming artists.
Picking A Lock
Cat-Ro
Awww, hello kitty! Or totoro. Or kitty cosplaying as totoro. Or train cosplaying as kitty cosplaying a- ya know what, I’mma stop now.
Imagine that happened in real life while you were waiting for the train.
He also shared the struggles he faces as an artist: "Not enough time. And not enough strength sometimes. There are different days in life: sometimes you can do a lot of things, and have a lot of energy, sometimes you wake up and feel apathy. The main struggle is that it will be time when you can't create anything. And you must be patient."

We also asked Gudim why he chose to create these types of illustrations and if he gets any negative feedback on them: "I do these kinds of illustrations because I like that kind of art: I don't see enough illustrations like this, so I think the world needs it. Of course, I have negative feedback too, almost all from the Russian audience (I don't know why), it's ok because there are different tastes and different moods."

Shuffle All
Karma
Actually karma is not bound by time, so it is possible that the effects may precede the cause. What's shown above is more like judgement, a 'human' concept, which is much simpler than karma. As karma is not bound by time, one may experience good (or bad) fortune even before he/she does a good (or bad) deed.

I have been all over the world, visited all ages of our Earth, seen other worlds with all their floral and fauna both real and imagined and I have been to the end of universe - micro AND macro! It all started with the first book that was read to me and took up speed as I learned the skill myself… I don’t find this quarantine particularly difficult.

That's like parenting. At some point, your kids reject your care and it's time for them to care by themselves.

Meh. Not funny (with a couple exceptions that made me smile; none made me even chuckle), not clever, but those with a junior high mentality might find them thought provoking. The worst page I've seen on Bored Panda today (which is saying a lot: I love this site!).
