After finishing high school, Jake Russell developed a passion for cartoons. Money is one of his primary inspirations for doing art and he’s open about this. At the first point, he followed a number of Instagram illustrators, and this inspired him a lot. The artist then narrowed his focus to webcomics. All that matters is that his dark humor and maybe improper jokes about his paintings make people laugh. According to the artist’s mood during the day, each comic strip could take anywhere from 5 minutes to several months to complete. It can be said that he has a wide range of drawing tools at his disposal, from the classic pencil and paper to a smartphone or an iPad.
Jake often gets ideas from TV shows and podcasts and even from small talks with himself. He experiences burnout like other creatives, to the point that he forgoes using his platforms for months. Though some people make discouraging remarks, he still loves all the love and encouragement shown for his efforts. The artist's “Not Quite Right” series has revealed how comics give him access to infinite creativity. Scroll down for his 30 dark strips for relaxing and astounding laughs!
