Artist Illustrates Animals as Lazy Creatures

Many animals are lazy little creatures, but they’re so charming and adorable that we can’t help but love them. Digital illustrator Guodong Zhao obviously shares our opinion, which is why he created a funny series of illustrations called Lazy Things.

His adorable artworks show different animals doing things that they normally wouldn’t be able to do, yet there is something so relatable about his illustrations. You can see a seal sitting in a chair and using a smartphone while a bear is watching over his shoulder, a pig and a giraffe who are also using a phone and probably searching through social media and a tiger getting ready to eat a cake.
