We spoke with the artist and asked what inspired him to start creating his heartwarming comic series. The cartoonist shared with us: “I originally wanted to express my thoughts on being an introvert, but as time went on, I had fallen into a deep depression for some time. I realized the comics became an outlet for me during this time.”
When asked about the recurring themes in his comics, Marengo said: “I think about the past a lot. I base many comics off of real-life experiences.”
Next, we were curious about how Lambert approaches character design and what considerations he takes into account when creating characters for a new cartoon. The artist explained: “I tried to create a character that was a little dull in color and that didn’t stand out too much to reflect how I was feeling at the time. Luckily, it seems that some people have grown to like this little sheep despite that.”
Lastly, we wanted to find out what message or emotion the cartoonist hopes readers take away from his comics. The author of the series responded briefly: “You are not alone.”
