Bored Panda reached out to Diogo to learn more about him and his creative process. The artist shared with us that his journey as a comic artist started with Instagram, which he used as a platform to share his daily illustrations. "Initially, these were simple humorous drawings. Over time, I realized that the illustrations that resonated most with my audience were the ones that told a story or had a humorous twist. But I never really tried a big comic format like a graphic novel."

Grandma (paternal) loved lemon meringue pie. When my parents got married, Mom didn't know how to cook. She learned quickly, and decided she was ready for the big one: lemon meringue pie for her MIL. Mom followed the recipe 100%. She even managed an edible meringue, which I understand is difficult for beginners. The recipe left out one word. It said to add the lemon to the mixture. It did not say stir. Grandma got the piece with all the lemon.

We asked Diogo where he gets ideas for his comics. "Inspiration often comes from the mundane moments of daily life," he replied. "I observe interactions, people, nature, and even my quirky habits."
Diogo's creative process can vary, but he usually keeps his phone handy to jot down funny or interesting things he sees or thinks of during the day. "Then I review these notes and identify which ideas have the potential to be expanded into a comic. I think about the punchline or the main message I want to convey. After that, I start sketching, coloring, and adding details to ensure the visual elements enhance the mood or message. Before posting, I review the comic to ensure it’s clear, cohesive, and funny."
Looking at Diogo's Instagram name, "I am The Bird Guy," we got curious about how he came up with this idea. According to the artist, the name comes from the concept of being free and able to “fly” and be as creative as possible. "They symbolize freedom, perspective, and a certain whimsy that I try to capture in my work. It's a reminder to stay true to my style and interests and to bring a sense of joy and curiosity to my art."

Although he uses a lot of pop culture references in his comics, Diogo also likes to use real-life experiences as a source for his jokes. "A specific example is when I went to the beach and forgot to apply sunscreen, and I got red like a lobster. In this case, I drew myself as a 'real' lobster. To amplify the humor, I exaggerated the scenario by making the character a REAL lobster. When deciding what to exaggerate or alter, I focus on elements that will heighten the absurdity and relatability of the situation without losing the essence of the real-life experience."

A young woman joined a cloistered convent. It was non-verbal. She was there for 5 years when the mother superior called her in. "My child, you have done well. You may say two words." The young nun said, "Bed hard." Five years more go by, and the mother superior calls the nun in again, for a further two words. "Food cold." On her fifteenth anniversary, she's called again. "I quit!" The mother superior shook her head. "I'm not surprised. You've done nothing but complain since you got here."
