Bored Panda got in touch with Eckyo again to learn more about his creative process and himself. Firstly, we wanted to know how his journey as a comic artist started. Eckyo shared that he's always loved reading comics. "I've always been passionate about drawing and creating characters with stories." However, the cute art style is not the first one Eckyo tried. "I used to draw more realistic art before. Along the way of my art journey, I have found that the cute art style has a calming and relaxing effect on me. In 2017, I started creating comics in a cute art style and sharing them online; beyond my expectations, lots of people enjoyed them! I'm so grateful to everyone who appreciates my work and supports me!"
Captain !!! We are sinking !!!! Comments got in !

"Sometimes I see something in my everyday life that sparks an idea, or I read a book or watch a movie that gives me inspiration. I also love looking at other artists' works and seeing how they approach things. As for motivation, I'm always excited to share my work with others and see their reactions. Some of them also DM'd me. It's a great feeling when someone tells me my work made them laugh or feel better."
But don’t set urself on fire trying to brighten someone else’s path
"A candle doesn't lose its light when lighting another candle" I think Jesus said this in..... somewhere in the bible..
lol. I don’t think Jesus said that. He said don’t put your lamp on the desk under something, leave it out to shine.

"What makes me passionate about creating comics is that it's a way for me to express myself and tell stories that I hope people will enjoy. What I want people to take away from my work is a sense of fun and positivity. Even if the stories I tell have some sad or serious moments, I want people to take the message and have a good time."
I may love donuts and you may love bagels, but my hatred is towards bagels, not my friend who carrys it :3... The donut-bagel war is coming!!
very true, gratitude is so important. Before going to sleep each night try thinking of 3 things you are grateful for. Sometimes it can be as simple as I am thankful that I woke up today, I am grateful for electricity, and so on. It really can change your outlook
Not be that guy, but I LOVE storms - my absolute favorite thing in the world. I count those and look forward to those. Especially the ones they warn you about 2-3 days in advance.
Eckyo told us that he's very excited about his future plans for comics! One thing that he's currently exploring is how to create a comfortable short comic video format for his followers to enjoy. "I also dedicate myself to continuing my online drawing course in cute art, where people can learn my entire process for creating characters and comics, including how to develop a short story. As for upcoming projects, I'm currently working on How to Draw Cute eBook Volume 2, and I can't wait to share it with everyone once it's finished!" So stay tuned!

Karan says something similar in House Arrest… either way i find it sweet :)
So, by this logic, if I jump off a 30 story building I can really fly?
For like a minute or two yeah just make sure you land in the water and know how to swim so that you can fly again

I don't think I want this one to be reality : )
I like that it specifies "glow differently " instead of saying that you only glow when you're truly happy
I read it as in pretending you're happy, which what a lot of folks do, when depressed.

But I'm a mom... well, my goal is to make it to bedtime most days, and I put most my energy toward that (also working 65hrs/week)
Well, you are staying focused on your dreams: the dreams in where you provide as well as you can for your child, and survive, and, keep thinking and trying ways to reduce your workload somehow, and trying again even if its moment by moment! My beautiful Mom went from retail to real estate, all while I was growing up! I watched her struggle, but understood there were certain things that she dreamed for her family and her children, and that she was trying as hard as she could to keep those dreams continuing! So I pray for this for you, too: a better source of income for a better work life balance, and enough something somewhere consistantly to support and nourish you, too!

I honestly don't see what's wrong with the first 3, they're really cute!
This is exactly what I needed for an off day like today. I hope both sides of the author’s pillow are cool and that every time they try to take a shower, the water is always the right temperature
Normally I prefer something less 'sweet', but I really needed this today. So thanks to the author. :)
This is the BP I know and love. Great "cartoons". I needed these today.
