A green, art-nouveau style graphic with purple, yellow, and rainbow accents that reads: Colours of the Gate Vol. 2. Shy. she/her & they/them. My name is Shy! I am a trans feminine non-binary writer and artist in my early 30s. I've been doing both on and off for the better part of a decade but only recently began trying to seriously improve my craft at both with the intent of creating my own comics/graphic novels in the future. Playing Baldur's Gate 3 unironically led to the realization of both my non-binary and transgender identities, so Shadowheart and Nocturne’s story is very near and dear to my heart and I am so excited to create a piece for them in this zine. bsky: shy-af, ao3: shy_af, tumblr: moonshine-out-of-shield.
