Meet Anjali, the Artist Behind These Wonderful Couple Comics
Given the chance, Bored Panda reached out to Anjali, the author of the couple comics, to find out a little bit more about her and her work.
“Since childhood, I was always fascinated by comics and doodling. And I’ve always been really good at drawing and illustrating that’s why I pursued Bachelors of Fine Arts. Where I learned the basics of design, illustrations, and software like Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop. I create my comics in Adobe Illustrator.”
When asked about what prompted her to create these funny couple drawings, the artist shared that “It all started when I first drew a comic strip for KT (My partner) on a piece of paper about the story of how we met. He loved it so much that he asked me to create some more and finally convinced me to make it on a digital platform and share it with the world. And that's how Anjali comics was born. It's been more than two years now.”
Where Does Anjali Get the Inspiration for Her Couple Comics?
Being an artist is not easy, one can easily encounter a lack of inspiration, burnout, etc, so we wanted to ask the artist about her inspiration for the funny couple comics.
“The love and support I get from my audience inspire me to create more comics and give them a reason to smile. It’s a great feeling and responsibility to know that people are waiting to see my comics every Sunday evening.”
We also asked the artist about how people reacted to her cute couple comics. “Oh, I love how they connect with us and our characters. I also get many DMs from my audience that our characters look like them, sometimes they even send their picture comparing them with our characters.”
Can Anyone Draw Couple Comics?
We were also wondering if Anjali had any advice for the people who might want to start doing funny couple comics as well, and this is what she shared. “Don’t feel shy or embarrassed about sharing your art. Don’t worry about being judged and make the content which makes you happy rather than making something which you can’t relate to just to please your audience. Be authentic and be yourself.”
“Our art is inspired by our daily life instances and more than 90% of my posts are based on real-life incidents and 10% on wild over-dramatic imagination. And we are glad that our audience finds it relatable.”
Thanks, Anjali, for talking with us! And now, let her couple comics do the rest and entertain us until our bellies are sore with laughter.
