About Me

Language plays a monumental role in how we self-identify, how others identify us, and our expression of self.
— Hano's Essay on Comic Books & Queer Reading

who even am i??

I’ve got the typical artist backstory; I was super into it as a kid, continued it throughout school, and even achieved a Higher Education in illustration.

I love comic book studies, academia, classics, and pop culture literature of classic stories. Picturing these tales through my art is more than a passion, it’s a purpose.

Now, I find that I’m more interested in the “why?” of art, and the theories behind it. What makes an artist an artist? How are artists approaching art in a digital age and does it need to change?

I want to work with neurodiverse artists from all backgrounds and talk about the ways we can manage their expectations when making art, their attitudes, ideas, and struggles.

I’m working towards a Level 2 in Counselling and hope to offer mentorships to artists within the year.
