Hi my name is Erika, i am a comic creator based in the uk, working mainly on horror comics. I've made several comics including Disorder, my 3 volume experimental body horror series about dypsporia, mental illness and self destruction. This Dread Disease We call Skin, a series of short 4-5 page horror comics about isolation and alienation. I also was the artist on Katie Lane's queer gothic horror Ursula, and have been featured in Anthologies by Image comics (Razorblades, 24 Panels) and Quindrie Press (When I Was Me)My current project is a series of Self portraits I've been creating on and off since 2021, exploring my relationship with my body and self image, and in conversation with my favourite tradition in self portraiture of reflecting the artist's inner feelings and thoughts about themself via representation of the self. I am also doing preparatory work for my next comic series and will hopefully have more information to reveal in 2024. I created this Patreon page for two reasons, to create a space where I could share my art, not just finished pages but also sketchbook pages, old illustrations and concept art. Even things like pencil layers for certain projects. The second reason was to try and provide myself with some financial stability, I have multiple chronic health problems which mean that I am unable to work a day job, the support of my patrons has helped me to be able to table at a few conventions, it’s helped me afford print runs and is helping me in my personal life too. I’ve been posting to this page every weekend since 2019, and there’s now a sizeable archive of my work on here, which is what I always wanted this place to be, and I add to it every Saturday! Some of the things patrons can expect to see are: -Self portraits and other illustrations. Each week I am uploading a new illustration, sometimes these are self portraits from my current project, sometimes other illustrations I've worked on-Disorder. all 15 chapters of Disorder are available for £3 tier patrons to read, as well as there being scripts and pencils for some of the pages to view. -other comics work: You can read the short comics I made for This Dread Disease We Call Skin, my short story collection, as well as pieces made for various zines and anthologies.-sketchbook pages and concept art: I love showing insights into this part of my process and have shared plenty with lots planned for the future, both for projects currently in development and ones that never quite made it. -illustrations: I’ve posted a bunch of old art therapy illustrations I did on here, and have plans to share a self portraiture project I’ve been working on too. -a newsletter: I sporadically will share updates on what I’m working in, listening to/reading etc. I'm also always open to new ideas for what i can include and offer on here to make it an exciting and interesting space for readers and fans. Making comics is something that has been deeply fulfilling to me, and has provided me with a sense of purpose and direction when so often due to my health problems I’ve felt like I’ve had none. The help my patrons give me to have some stability in my life and to keep making the art that I’m passionate about has been so vital. I hope you will become a Patron and help me keep making comics!
