My 30 Cartoons That Show The Struggles Of Being Human And Everyday Life

I am Irina, a designer based in San Francisco. I’ve started drawing during the lockdown to deal with stress and have been doing it ever since. There’s something very satisfying about having an idea pop in your head and seeing it on paper (or on the iPad) just a few minutes later.

I get inspired by the daily struggles of being an imperfect human and dealing with various emotions. Some are more “deep” about how your past affects your future or how to adjust your expectations to reality, and some are more comical, like being on the toilet is “my happy place.”

I’ve enjoyed making these. I hope you like these too! You can follow me on Instagram for mored drawings; I try to publish a new one each day.

If you’ve missed my previous posts that are in a similar vein, you may find them here: I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X.
