Anton Gudim is an artist who’s great at noticing how contradictory our everyday life can be. Besides his quirky short-paneled comics, the artist also creates sarcastic and relatable illustrations he calls "Yes, But" that depict two sides of the same circumstance.

The idea of creating "Yes, But" comics came to Anton in 2016. This format was inspired by reflections on how people get along with a lot of contradictions in their lives. The artist found the actions of some people very contradictory: hence this "but" appeared.

Anton's ideas come from observing everyday life. As the artist mentioned in previous interviews, over the years he has trained himself to notice something and to be in a constant search for ideas. Since he has formed an absurd surrealistic style, Anton looks at the world through the prism of it. "This is the way to fight the boredom: to see something new in the regular surroundings."

    It's the 4th article featuring "Yes, But" comics on Bored Panda and it seems that it won't be the last. The artist shared that he has a lot of ideas for this format so he's planning to continue creating these contradictory illustrations.

    "I don’t come up with something special: the ideas come by themselves, which means that the topic has not exhausted itself and the format itself has a wide interpretation, which almost does not restrain my creative impulses."

    We asked Anton whether he has some upcoming projects. The artist replied that he has a lot on his plate at the moment. Besides the "Yes, but" illustrations he is also creating drawings outside this format for himself, publishing books, discussing future exhibitions, etc. All this doesn't allow him to think about other projects. However, the artist shared that everything can change at any moment. "Just like I did not plan to do Yes, BUT as a separate project, but it happened."
