Have you ever stopped to think about the world and its problems or why things are this way or not? I'm sure you have.

My name is Daniel Garcia, and I'm a professional illustrator working regularly with several publications and companies in more than 20 countries. Mostly I do conceptual work, where it's important to have a strong idea and create an illustration that explains quickly and visually things from politics to culture, technology to the environment. While society can be fair and unfair in many ways, in the end, it's just talking about people and their issues and asking difficult questions.

I’m always producing new stuff, and after the success of my previous posts on Bored Panda, I’ve decided to show you another selection of my best works to show some of the problems afflicting the world.

So what about you? What are your questions? Do these illustrations make you think or they don't do anything for you? Please let me know! Click here and here to see my previous articles!

I feel this so hard now that income is no where near cost of living. (In the USA, can ya tell?)

The main goal of my illustrations is first to cause a reaction in the viewer, but most importantly, to make the person think about the different issues depicted and ask themselves difficult questions. They don’t have to agree with it, but if it can inspire some people or some change, it’s already a win!

I actually prefer people being more respectful about personal space since the virus. It's been harder finding a job though.

I studied architecture, but I decided to follow my passion and become an illustrator/cartoonist. I’m a self-learned artist, I had no formal training so it was (and it’s still) a long process of discovering and improving myself and my work. As a child, I was an avid reader of comic books, especially European ones. Visual storytelling has always fascinated me and I got into art naturally. I started drawing for fun and it developed over the years into working professionally as an illustrator.

Mostly, I do conceptual work for different publications, where it's important to create an illustration that explains quickly and visually an idea. Sometimes the concept comes to me immediately, but sometimes it takes a few long hard thinking days.

I cover many things from politics to culture, technology to the environment. While society can be fair and unfair in many ways, in the end, it's just talking about people and their issues. My style is realistic and based on a traditional illustration with digital coloring. And my humor is around 50cm long, 5kg, orange fur… no wait, that’s my cat.

I hate to say it, but I called it twenty years ago. Just like with Vietnam, America never has any plans or ideas of hiw to win a war and no attention span. Well invade and f**k around until we got bored, it's too expensive, too unpopular, whatever... then we leave and act like the resulting chaos is both surprising and unusual l.

People usually think art is a matter of talent. It’s not. Practicing every day for years and loving it is what makes you better. But if you don’t love it enough or if you are not persistent, you’ll end up quitting sooner or later.

A lot of people don't realize this. It's so bad in the U.S. that enough doctors hold the false belief that Black people feel less pain than white people that Black people are systemically under-prescribed pain medication. Here's the study if anyone wants to read more: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4843483/

As I expected, no comments here. What sort of a world do we live in where we are too afraid to have opinions on something as important as this because of the hatred and personal attacks that we risk by doing so?

The Patriarchy is still causing a lot of pain and oppression. People who deny it are part of the problem. It's everywhere, just listen to when we tell you.

No. Not everywhere. In some country, it does not exist anymore but some women still use it as an excuse to demand more privileges.

I don’t think the majority of men believe this anymore. It’s just like the racist there’s a few trying to keep it that way but blame the majority for the problems of the few is wrong. Time to get off it.

If you are talking about the *world* then this is definitely the case. Certain countries are much better than others. I don't think any country has reached full equality yet, but many are getting close.

Historically men have brunt the best advantages and the worse harm society provides. It seems as we move towards "equality" men get to keep the worst aspects of society, while women gain even more societal advantages without having to take on any of the harms men get to maintain.

🎶This is a man's world But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl 🎶 This world is all about money and power,there's no need to argue because those who have it don't see gender or colour,only slaves.

Then why are you still talking? That's contrary to a lot of women's wishes and wellbeing.

I only sort of agree with those who say it’s about income. In my household it’s about what’s quickest and easiest because time is the resource we have the least amount of right there next to our income.
