As you might've guessed, we're back for yet another post featuring Gudim's newest work, this time with a fresh set of questions for Anton, the artist known for his clever and humorous "YES, BUT" comic series. You might remember our previous interviews with him, and now we're excited to delve a little deeper into the mind behind the artwork.

Anton gave us some insight into how his creative process works. He explained, "I’m always observing the world around me, taking note of interesting or paradoxical situations that I encounter. These observations often serve as the basis for my comics. As for my work environment, I can create pretty much anywhere as long as it's peaceful and I have the mental space to focus."

Discussing the topic of criticism and the occasional negativity that comes with showcasing work on the internet, the artist showed an admirable approach. He told us, "Criticism is part of being a creative individual, especially when your work is shared on such a vast platform. I view every critique as an opportunity to grow and improve. However, it's crucial to distinguish between constructive criticism and simple negativity. If the critique is meaningful, it could potentially influence my future work, but I won't alter my style just due to personal dislike."

When asked about any untapped topics or issues he plans to address in his comics, Anton kept things rather mysterious. "There are countless topics and issues I haven't touched upon yet but hope to in the future. Given the endless stream of contradictions and absurdities in our lives, there's no shortage of subjects to cover. However, I prefer to keep my plans under wraps. The surprise element of my comics, I believe, contributes to their appeal."

Balancing a day job in engineering with his creative pursuits is a challenge, but Gudim is not one to let his job slow him down. He shared, "It can be quite a juggling act to manage my engineering job and art creation, but I find a way. In fact, having a non-artistic job is beneficial as it offers a breather from the creative process, allowing my ideas to brew at the back of my head. As for the influence of my engineering background on my art, I would say it introduces a level of precision and analytical thinking to my work. My comics, while seemingly ironic, are often the result of meticulous planning and execution."
