Art expresses what we cannot say.

Art has long served as a means for people to express themselves in ways that words cannot. From the stroke of a brush to the sculpting of clay, art has the ability to capture and communicate emotions, experiences, and ideas that are difficult to express verbally. Art is a powerful tool for exploring and expressing the complexities of the human experience, using both visual and tactile forms.

It’s no surprise that so many artists have used comics to humorously discuss their lives and daily struggles. While you may not think your daily life is full of funny moments, seeing it through the eyes of a stranger can certainly change your perspective. After all, who doesn’t enjoy some dark humour? Ellen certainly does, as she created the Pizzacake comics.
