“Yes, But”: 28 Thought-Provoking Illustrations Showcasing Society’s Most Common Contradictions (New Pics)

This Moscow-based artist's fan base continues to increase on social media channels, with over 1.4 million Instagram followers alone. Gudim explained how it makes the artist feel when his account rises so quickly.

"My cartoons are about what I see around me, about happenings in my life, about observations, and considering that my life is not "unique," it's not surprising that many individuals experience the same difficulties or situations. It's also comforting to know you're not alone and that people all across the world share your feelings," Gudim explained.

The artist is constantly creating new comics and never seems to run out of ideas or enthusiasm. Gudim revealed how many comics he makes on a weekly basis.

"A few years ago, I would have said roughly two comics per week, but the situation has changed slightly. I have a second project (Yes, But (you might see it)), I still get commissions for commercial illustrations, and I also do some of my drawings in animation (which can take several days due to my lack of animation skills). Given all of this, my response would be almost daily. I sketch practically every day; I don't have set days off, even during holidays. I can draw something on the aircraft or in my hotel room. I can't say this rhythm is tiring because I feel like I can stop at any time, but if I don't sketch for 1-2 days, I already want to draw again," he told his favorite comic artist Gudim.

Gudim is appreciative to his admirers across all media. He also sent a message to the Pandas: "I hope you are not overly critical of what I do. However, the Internet may have been built particularly for this purpose. Comics/drawings/creativity are as much a part of our lives as trees, the sky, and birds, and I enjoy being inside of it. All I want to do is invite you inside the world I built, and maybe it will bring you some joy, divert you from your problems, make you think, or inspire you to create something of your own. "Thank you for your time!"
