14 Funny, Pigeon-Themed Comic Strips That Will Make Your Day Brighten With Laughter
Pigeons may have been considered rats with wings in the movie Stardust Memories, but we humans ought to give them more credit for being amazing animals. Aside from being complex and intelligent, they can recognize figures from images and are very fast.
They also have a sense of space and time. This was proven in a 2017 study, where pigeons were taught how to evaluate the length of digital lines on a computer screen and how long they displayed on the screen.
Although we cannot confirm it, perhaps their awesomeness is what inspired Christian ‘Bees’ McGowan to draw comics about them. According to the American comic artist, she likes drawing and storytelling for as long as she can remember.
When she was around 4 years old, she watched a behind-the-scenes video of The Lion King by Disney. A group of artists was seated in front of a wall full of drawn-out thumbnails.
She couldn't believe how thousands of drawings eventually became one awesome movie. That's why she started drawing.
She was in her young adult years when her interest in comics deepened. She is a fan of Scott Pilgrim And Hellboy.
It makes her happy to entertain people with her work. Aside from Pigeon Comics, she also created the LGBTQ+ slice of life and romance comic titled My Kiwi Crush.
Bees also loves animals, which is very likely the reason why she started Pigeon Comics. According to the artist:
I have an idea or a thought process and draw birds along with a written form of my current thoughts.
She doesn't feel the need to create something that's world-changing or groundbreaking. If her ideas evoke emotions, she feels that she has accomplished her goal with her work.
Bees also incorporates lyrics of her favorite songs with her comic strips. This is something you'll see in what we compiled below.
