Hi I'm April! I’m a comic artist, writer and zine maker currently based in Leeds, originally from Staffordshire. I make comics about life as a trans person, aliens, vampires, luckless squires, weird little monsters and lots and lots of cats! My work explores themes of identity and determination against systems of oppression. I often use comedy to explore my ideas and have a passion for experimenting with visual storytelling techniques. Attention to detail is an important part of my work. I like to draw with intention, designing functional weapons and armour for my medieval settings and drawing detailed crowd scenes by hand. My goal with my art is to share my stories to help people to feel comfortable in their skin and laugh a little bit too!
Pronouns: She/They
