Humour now is all about LOL, ROFL and LMAO. well not really !
Some of the best humour is about things that we see everyday, the comic strips that make us smile. The subtle smile that makes us think of ourselves in that situation.
In a world of creative comedians, cliched jokes there is a need for subtle humor that us crave for something simple, rustic and yet so perfectly relatable. It takes a beautiful mind to make everyday ideas into humour, creatively expressed in simple yet wonderful ways. Iram is one such artist who creates comics that fit the above description.
From Delhi, she confesses that she is a Research Analyst by day and an doodler when ever she finds time. Her infectious enthusiasm, typically characteristic of Delhi oozes in her world of relatable comics. Her four square design comics come with a vibe that makes most of us smile bright. Without further ado let us take a look at these wonderful comics that tickle your humour chemicals.
Here are 8 relatable comics from Iram that get you going with glee:
#1 My Personal Area 51
Does Area 51 exist? We dont know but the most closely guarded secret is the Whatsapp Chat between you and your best friend that has you in your craziest avatar. It is reflective of everything that we are and protected at all costs.
#2 I am on a Binge Diet
All the circus that is made to stay on a diet goes for an absolute toss once we give in to our cravings. Then it is slog overs, no holds barred. We are on an eating spree that can put to shame a hungry whale.
#3 Wake me up when Saturday ends
What is worse than working before holidays?
Well working on holidays. The first casualty in this quest to work and finish our responsibility is that Saturday. Oh that day goes so slowly that it seems like eternity. It is a punishment that has no other superior.
#4 Winter is coming ? Na too old school – Now only flood of celebrity wedding photos.
One marriage, two people, one photo. Shared everywhere. #trending. Prewedding, wedding, post wedding, celebrities galore. These photos are like Airtel Internet, available everywhere.
#5 Desi – Alexa?
Even before Alexa came, there has always been one person in the family that is called upon to know everything and to locate anything and everything we need. Are you that person in your house ?
#6 Aging gracefully
We often find elders trying to tell us and impress us with their vocab and this can go wrong at many places leading to humorous incidents that makes us all laugh. But always we can the lighter and cute side of it.
#7 “Be the girl who decided to go for it”
Have you ever told yourself this and done something so legendary that you ended up cursing yourself for making that glorious successful self troll.
Last but not the least
Drum rolls !!
#8 The Zero in a Million
We all have that one friend who takes tons and tons and tons of photos of themselves but end up commenting and deleting every pic of them until no pic of them is left in which they look beautiful.
As an artist Iram feels that the best compliment she receives is people going all smiles over her works, sharing them with others and spreading smiles. Iram has other hobbies such as doodling, painting but these comics are her favourite. She finds time to pursue her passion and her friends and family have been a constant support for her ideas ever since she began.
Her travels from Delhi to Gurgaon gives her the perfect time to work on digital drawing that at times she does without the use of styluses and other equipment.
Nathan W. Pyle has been one of her most influential role models and this self taught artist is all set to make laughter and humour the best way to reach people. These ideas however common are represented in a way that is new, fresh and vibrant – making it relatable and uncommon at the same time. She believes that an artist’s biggest strength has to be patience and they should take criticism without being defensive.
