Illustrator Perfectly Captures How an Introvert Likes to Spend the Weekend

By Sara Barnes on October 27, 2017

For an introvert, the weekend is best spent alone. It’s precious time to stay home, binge watch Netflix, and snuggle with a furry pal. But what happens when a friend suggests hanging out? The prospect can fill an introvert with dread! Landysh, one half of the drawing duo Lingvistov, perfectly captures this dilemma in her funny illustrations. Her “doodles about the weekend” are largely centered around the idea that Saturday and Sunday are really meant for catching up on sleep and avoiding plans.

Have you ever wondered, Am I an introvert? If the sentiments in these illustrations sound appealing to you, then chances are that you too prefer solitude to boisterous gatherings. As one of Landysh’s drawings suggests, your idea of being “busy” on a Saturday night is laying in bed and watching TV—alongside your cat and a bowl of snacks, of course. Or, if you somehow did make it out to a bar, restaurant, or party, by the end of the night you're reminded why it's so nice to have a night in.

This isn’t the first time we’ve admired Lingvistov’s witty drawings. Landysh has previously made us laugh with her comics of funny dogs, reasons to love someone, and a deep love of sleep. These illustrations and more are available as stationery, prints, and calendars in the Lingvistov online shop.
