]]>“I do a daily commentary on whatever is on my mind. Often it’s the news—especially during COVID,” the artist said in a statement for Bored Panda. “Sometimes it’s seasonal — like holidays or Halloween. Other times it’s just an observation of the silliness I see in things. Sometimes I have a clear idea for a message at the start. Sometimes I just start drawing, and a message will emerge.”
Halloween wasn’t too long ago, and as he mentioned, his Instagram account is currently full of comics about candy corn-stuff.
Throughout his entire career, Goris has been focusing on branding, identity, and creative work for national organizations, institutions, and non-profits. But only a few years ago, he started doing something for his soul: he has taken up painting for the first time in three decades.
He currently has over 3,000 followers on Instagram. Check his comics in the gallery below. Did you like it? Which one was your favorite?

]]>“My biggest bit of advice is to make a point to draw for at least 30 minutes a day,” Lowery once remarked in an interview with Travel Channel, when asked for creative advice. “For some, that seems really tough (it seemed impossible for me at first), but I think it’s incredibly important. You’ll find your voice and figure out how you like to work and draw. It’s also a great way of recording your progress as an artist.”
Lowery practices what he preaches. Aside from a steady stream of illustrations posted daily, his Instagram also includes tips and tricks on cultivating creativity. A recent series, titled aptly, “Stay Home and Draw (with Mike Lowery)”, features basic instructions on how to create your own flipbook from the comfort of your writing desk.
“When I was little, I had a grandmother who was an artist and she encouraged my brother and me to keep sketchbooks,” recalled Lowery, explaining the origins of his practice. “Later, I had a college professor who required we draw in one every single day. It really forced me to draw a lot. I used my sketchbooks as a place to experiment with how I draw, what I draw and what materials I use to draw.”

]]>That is what the heart-brain relationship is like most of the time. While your brain says, “if you have that second piece of cake you’ll need an insulin shot,” your heart goes “should I put whipped cream on it, or is just the chocolate sauce enough?”
The “Heart and Brain” webcomic is a popular spinoff from Nick Seluk’s “Awkward Yeti” series. The cartoonist, who left a career in graphic design to work on his comics full time, was initially inspired to create the “Awkward Yeti” series by a very bad painting (which turned into the yeti). This decision must have been the right choice, as Seluk’s hilarious comics have taken the internet by storm and have also been published in book form.
“Heart and Brain” follows the dialogue between the cynical, rational, socially-influenced Brain, and the irrational, impulsive, optimistic, hopeful Heart. The character of the Heart is inspired by the concept of the Id, the Brain by the Superego, and the owner of these body parts, Lars the Yeti, represents the poor, torn Ego.
