I try to be honest with people who ask me about what it’s like to be a freelancer. While there’s lots of benefits to it, there’s also things that make it hard.

What are some things you hate about freelancing? #freelancing

FLIP has been out for several months now! It's a story about K-Pop fandom, being a 1st generation kid, friendship, and a being a Black girl who learns compassion for herself. It's an important story to share—I hope you enjoy reading it! ✨
The cover of FLIP by Ngozi Ukazu. It features the main character, Chi-Chi, holding a mask of the titular character Flip over her head while she looks at the viewer.

✨PUBLISHING ANNOUNCEMENT ✨
At long last, my Great Gatsby retelling - a psychological thriller/drama graphic novel filled with vintage glamour - is getting published! #GreatGatsbyIIE
Drawing of Daisy in a white peacock dress in the hands of Gatsby. Publishing synopsis reads “ In which Nick Carraway develops a parasocial codependency with Gatsby—an aspiring couturier with a fabricated identity— until control shifts within New York’s criminal underworld and a deadly, reignited obsession with a former starlet shakes Gatsby’s grip on reality, thus threatening Nick’s ideal American muse”

#WickedForGood week btw 🧹👑
On the left part of the picture is a digital painting, and character design exploration of Elphaba Thropp, from the movie Wicked. She is wearing a mostly black outfit with leather textures and sparkly ornate embellishments, sharp and pointy lapels, collars, and shoulder-pads, her pants are a fitted leggings that extend to a pair of red bottomed heels, she is wearing a black helmet that is pointing and extending to the sky and her hair is a in a single, long fishtail braid. She is holding the grimmerie on her right hand as she's casting spells with the other, and she is balancing on top of her levitating gnarled broom. A text below the illustration reads: After mastering the mysteries of the Grimmerie and refining her magical prowess, Elphaba becomes the most powerful being in the land, and she ascends to be the ruler and protector of Oz. On the right part of the image is a digital Digital painting, and character design exploration of Glinda Upland, from the movie Wicked. She is wearing a mostly all white outfit with lace and velvet textures, decorated with sparkly ornate embellishments and floral patterns. Her top is reminiscent of a priest cape/robe with pink floral lining, and she is wearing lacey leggings that extend to a pair of heels. She has an ornate stole that hangs across her chest, over both her shoulders and falls behind her back. She is wearing a giant crystal crown and she is wielding both a scepter and a magic wand. There is a long pink ribbon twirling around the air around her. A text below the illustration reads: Through the teachings and guidance of Elphaba, Glinda finally became a true sorcerer. Although her powers are limited, she became prolific at art of physical combat, making her a lethal companion to the Supreme Sorceress. Digital painting of Elphaba and Glinda from the movie Wicked. They are dancing and waltzing, with Elphie's hand resting on Glinda's shoulder and palm, and Glinda's hand grasping Elphie's waist. They are both wearing white, sparkly gowns and they are waltzing over a rainbow path, floating in darkness. Digital illustration of Elphaba and Glinda, from the movie Wicked. Elphaba is wearing a full black outfit from head to toe and a short cape. She is sitting cross legged on her flying broom, with her right hand propping up her weight, and her left hand holding the "Grimmerie". On the backseat of the broom is glinda, wearing a blue top with white sleeves and a long dress, with a white witch hat. She is holding her staff/wand. Digital painting of Elphaba and Galinda from Wicked. Elphaba is wearing a sleek black outfit, a wider brimmed witch hat, and she's holding her broom. She is holding the hand of Glinda, who's wearing a white ball gown a sparkly crown, and she's holding her wand. They are earnestly looking at each other.

I'm looking for a literary agent for the US comic industry. I've been published in Italy and France during the last 10 years, I'm currently working as a co-creator for DC's Shazam and I'd love to make my own graphic novel next! I do fantasy, adventurous, wholesome queer comics for teens and adults.

🎉Today is my birthday! Here are my fave pieces I've drawn over this past year (that I can show lol), i'd love a share if you fancy it :^)
A drawing of Moiraine & Siuan from The Wheel of Time, peacefully sat holding each other. They are within a round bamboo frame which shows Siuan’s home of Tear above & Tar Valon below. The background is river plants with fish hiding. within. There is a border of black triangles. They are both wearing blue patterned draping clothes & Moiraine has adopted Siuan's cultural tattoos. An illustration within a pointed frame surrounded by a decorative border. In it an eldritch looking fairy, the Briar Queen sits on a thorny throne. She has gnarled white skin which seems to merge with her bodice and spiked pauldrons. Her skirts are white beneath a leafy overskirt. Her tall hennin with diaphanous veil which falls behind is partly made of blackberry nodules. She has horns and pointed ears, black sclera and red pupils. She menacingly is holding a thorny rope/whip which is tying up a blonde fairy in a shibari-esque fashion. The prisoner has been caught eating the blackberry fruit, left half-eaten on the floor- it's red juice covering her mouth and hands. She wears a white dress and has dragonfly wings. Behind a motley crew of fairy courtiers looks on. The throne is on a raised dais with a ragged red curtain above. The decorative border consists of a black background with twisting brambles, with blackberry flowers and fruits. A digital sketch of two Black lesbians in 1830s dress. The figure in a pale gold-ish gown with voluminous off-shoulder elbow length sleeves & a low neckline stands behind her lover, arms wrapped around her with eyes downcast & a soft smile. She has a dainty piece of gold jewellery with a blue stone around her forehead & gold drop earrings. Her hair is parted in the middle, curled at the sides and a bow-like construction at the back. The girl in front wears a pale pink gown with wide neckline & cream details, the sleeves are short but poof out. A cream sash with a bow is tied at the waist. She is holding on to the arms of her lover around her, looking back with an open smile. Her hair is tied up and parted in the middle with ringlets. Both ladies wear cream gloves. An illustration of two lesbian ghosts dancing. The left hand ghost wears a 1760s silk sack gown, the right hand wears an early 1500s style gown with puffed sleeves and a short cape with feathered beret. They are both blue and translucent. They are in a heavily wooded and overgrown graveyard, a lone candle burning with a blue flame sits on top of a slab grave beneath them.The illustrated border shows as follows: On top, clasping carved stone hands emerging from yew branches with berries. To the sides: tin lanterns with candles burning, carved stone hourglasses & carved stone broken columns. Beneath: Vaults based upon the Circle of Lebanon at Highgate Cemetery flanked by trees.
