We spoke with Sumona and asked her some questions about her wholesome series. We wanted to know what inspired her to start creating comics. Here’s what we learned: “I used to post my art on a different account but since COVID hit, I was inspired to turn my art into little stories to spread positivity and love, and give myself something to do in all my spare time.”

The artist continued and said the couple depicted in her comic is a combination of everything she’d want in an idealized version of innocent love: “Cheroo’s sweetness/innocence and love for Chim doesn’t undermine the fact that she is a strong capable individual. While Chim bashes all toxic masculinity and is happy to wear his feelings and emotions.”
We were curious about Sikdar’s creative process and how the illustrator comes up with new ideas for her strips and short animations shared on her Instagram. Here’s what we found out: “Some from personal experiences, some from imagination/fantasies, and some from just seeing genuine people in love. I do, however, struggle a lot to find the right music/audio sometimes.”
Lastly, Sumona shared with us: “My content can definitely make light of any situation. I have received DMs of gratitude from a lot of people for making their long-distance relationships more bearable, and how sharing my comics had brought a smile to their partner’s face. I won’t say I am an original contributor to the world of humour but what I make is ‘reality wrapped in champagne gift wrap.’”
