Raph, an artist from Melbourne, Australia, has gained a large following on Instagram with his funny comics that often have dark, surprising endings.

He started drawing in school to make his friends laugh, and after a trip to Japan, he switched from long comics to short, humorous strips. Influenced by Cyanide + Happiness and Adventure Time, Raph's style varies but always focuses on the joke. His simple character designs help highlight the humor.

Raph enjoys seeing people's reactions to his work, despite the challenges of staying consistent and dealing with social media algorithms. Outside of art, he makes music and plays Blizzard games alongside other things.

here’s my philosophy; if someone has drunk out of it, it’s half empty. if somebody filled it up, it’s half full. if you weren’t there to witness any of the events prior and you see a glass of water that has liquid that goes to the halfway point, it’s a glass of water.

I figure it depends which way you're moving towards. If it's a pool you're filling, you'd say half full. If it's a cup you're drinking, it's half empty.

The volume of the glass does not properly correspond to the volume of the liquid.

They make it look nicer in those nature documentaries. Probably selective editing.
