Humor is one of the few joys we have left when we grow up. We have to do taxes, pay bills, go to our office jobs, and sometimes even worse, take care of kids. But at least we can make fun of that, right?

That's exactly what illustrator Chaz Hutton does. He illustrates his experiences as an adult and creates sarcastic sticky note doodles which we can all probably relate to and laugh, or cry. The artist really enjoys making all kinds of diagrams, graphs, and 'statistics' while creating his art. Perhaps it makes it look more serious.

Click here, here, and here to see the previous article, and see an interview with the artist down below.

What is the main goal of your illustrations?

To be honest, it’s largely having to avoid having a real job. Turns out they’re quite hard and take up a lot of time.

    How did you get into art?

    I’m still coming to terms with the fact it’s technically art, but I started studying Architecture and then, through a series of not-very-well-thought-out decisions, ended up drawing stick figures.

    What is the most difficult part of creating these illustrations?

    The time travel wears you down, I can’t say why there’s time travel involved, but just know it’s hard on them knees after a while.

    What topics do you cover?

    Definitely not time travel, that’s a big-time travel no-no. Other than not that, I do spend a lot of time making jokes about normal stuff that happens in my life, which apparently is funny to people—which I guess should be more concerning to me than it is.

    Social media, noun: A construct with no real physical presence which was invented by a few people in order to influence control by a few over many in order to make money. The closest example, prior to the advent of the internet, are the likes of Dear Abbey, Siskel & Ebert, etc., individuals who, by virtue of their trade, had access to national or international printed press. With the advent of the internet and its resultant connectivity of peoples around the world the "internet star" was born. These internet stars were later renamed as influencers because companies that specialize in advertising for profit already knew that people followed blindly so they capitalized on an existing stream of advertising that, relatively, cost their customers very little. Pennies per view still equates to hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. You sold yourself.

    It's a vicious circle - press reports there might be a shortage, a few people panic buy, press reports people are panic buying, more people panic buy because the panic buyers are panic buying and that is creating a shortage.

    What advice would you give people who want to create art themselves?

    As insane as this might sound, the best advice there is to ah… Make Art. That’s it.

    Butterflying your roast chicken will result in a more evenly cooked chicken, with much more crispy skin, and it won’t dry out as easily.

    Most of the time, you are not awkward, you are just healthily self-conscious so you assume you are awkward but actually you are not.
