Zombffs (2021) A coming-of-age click flick horror comic about two girls who make a pact to stay together forever; thus, when one dies she comes back to life so that they can be with each other. However, a recent rift in the girls friendship leads the dead girl to come back wrong - as a zombie.



My Late Father (2021) A book of mini-comics about my experience of disenfranchised grief and the death of my father, who died before I was born. The book is coffin-shaped and split up into three sections - each named after flowers traditionally given at funerals - forget-me-not, lily, and hyacinth. I looked at the symbolism of these flowers. The stories in each section are inspired by each flower.



A Room of One's Own (2019-present) A project on girlhood culture with a focus on teenage bedrooms. This started as a university project, where I made a zine on the topic of teenage bedrooms. I have been working on it since then, and plan to release it autumn 2021. It includes illustrations and writings on the depiction of teenage bedrooms in film, as well as interviews with those in the art department of those films. Moreover, I also interviewed a teenager about her bedroom and the significance of the objects in her room and their curation.



Hell-hued (2020) An open-submissions horror zine I founded and edit. Each issue is inspired by a specific colour. The debut issue included illustration, writing and comics work by 26 different artists. I also designed and drew packaging stickers (shown above) for the zine, as well as a sticker sheet that came wrapped inside with the zine.


Above shows the comic I made as an introduction to the zine, inspired by hosts of old horror comics like Creepy and Misty. I plan to release the open-call for the next issue in summer 2021.


A Tour of My Bedroom (2020) A short animated GIF to advertise the A Room of One's Own zine.


The Lure of the Flesh (2019) A horror comic about a girl who fears she may be turning into a werewolf.


The Little Mermaid Print Series (2020) A series of prints inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid.
