I'm fortunate to be the illustrator for SAKE Comics, a collective of independent artists who create original short-story comics. Our other two members are Elaine, a writer, and Susanna, a composer and colorist.
SAKE represents a fully collaborative, creative team that explores a variety of narratives, styles and ideas. As such, our roles and what we put out may vary from project to project, but no matter the subject-matter, we focus on compelling ideas combined with memorable places and people.
Our premiere project is called 'Hipwrecked, and it will be posted shortly. This story follows a handful of intrepid sailors as they attempt to navigate the trade world. More often than not these days, however, they tend to be stranded on various islands after being shipwrecked by aggressive fate.
Fun Fact: These characters were originally created about 10 years ago, and Susanna is currently writing an opera based on the character she created then!
