We’ve reached out once again to Anton to learn more about him. This time we were wondering about his growth. We asked if the artist could collaborate with his younger self on a comic, what their approaches would be like, and what he would want to teach or learn from that younger version.“Despite the fact that my drawing skills have noticeably improved over 10 years of practice, I would like to learn from my younger self how to spend more time coming up with ideas and experimenting with creativity. As I get older, I notice that my mind is increasingly occupied with non-creative, everyday thoughts and worries. They are of no benefit and only make you more tired and anxious. Perhaps I would like to learn from my younger self how to worry and control things less than I do now,” wrote Gudim.

We also wanted to know if there is a medium or artistic technique that intimidates or challenges Gudim that he would like to master.
Besides his hugely successful Instagram page, with 1.4 million followers, we were curious to learn about the challenging moments in his career and what kept him going.Gudim shared: “You may have heard, but all this time, I had a full-time job in an office, where I worked in telecommunications as an engineer. This year has been special for me: I decided to leave the office, and now I am a full-time artist. Doubts about my career have followed me throughout my creative journey—both in the years when I earned nothing and in the years when I had solo exhibitions and books. Life in today’s world is very unstable: just watch the news to realize that nothing can be planned even a year ahead. That’s precisely why it took me so long to make drawing my main profession. Art and entertainment are not the most important things for people during hard times, and the world is undoubtedly going through a difficult period. Any upheaval will affect artists first, and I understand that.”

Anton added: “What keeps me going? The fact that I love creativity and drawing and that after 10 years of practice, I still haven’t lost my passion for it.”
