my anxiety disorder is cured 100% for sure absolutely i swear, only extremely realistic fears goin on in this here brain #makeaterriblecomicday #makeaterriblecomicday2026

a four panel comic.
panel 1: me looking off to the side casually saying "yeah i have basically zero anxiety at all since getting on meds years ago".
panel 2: me awake in bed at night. thought bubble: "how do i convince my doctor to give me extra vyvanse to stockpile in case a zombie apocalypse happens + closes every pharmacy forever."
panel 3: me looking up towards panel 2. panel 4: me, maybe a little defensive: "oh cmon thats a totally normal and reasonable worry". a zombie is coming through a door behind me.

girl whos addicted to really saturated colors on a quest to prove that hot pink can also be scary (it's me i'm the girl) #AOTH🫀👻 #wip

a series of two page spreads from AFFAIRS OF THE HAUNT. this one shows vivian and fel talking in the attic about lilah and cam, who are on the next page arguing in their bedroom.

fel looking over her shoulder menacingly and then whispering in a crying lilah's ear, growing more shadowed and spooky until lilah, silhouetted, stands at the top of the basement stairs in the last panel.

lilah frantically painting, being puppeted by fel like a marionette, black paint spilling everywhere around her. vivian looks concerned floating near the entrance to the basement.

vivian and fel talking. behind vivian on the first page is snippets from lilah and cam's respective nightmare/dreamscapes, showing them each clinging to pictures of one another.

stickerapp screenshot showing a bunch of sticker mockups: a glittery cat dressed as a clown with "embrace whimsy!" written beside it, a holographic mothman, four stickers of batman holding LGBT pride flags, three holographic ouija boards, an error message that says "your computer is haunted", and a holographic teacup that says "insist on your cup of stars".

sketches of stephanie brown from the absolute batman comics. the biggest one has her standing with hands in her pockets, looking off to the side and smiling. smaller sketches show her sitting smoking a cigarette and looking annoyed, and stealing tim drake's sunglasses while resting her arm on his head because he's like a foot shorter than her.

in case it's useful to anyone else, i've tossed the spreadsheet template i've been using to track my graphic novel progress in my ko-fi shop! keeps track of deadlines, pages started/finished, & how many pages you should do each day to stay on track. PWYW! ko-fi.com/s/bfcb2f39ff

a promo graphic for a comic progress tracker google sheet template, showing a spreadsheet to track pages started and finished in each step of the comic making process.

the same image, with the spreadsheet slightly edited to have checkboxes instead of inputting the date each step was finished.

reformatted one of my old sticker sheets to print as postcards today and i'm a little obsessed with it

a postcard design done in shades of pink, teal, and light yellow, showing various internet-themed ghosts: a ghost surrounded by plants in a browser window titled "boo!", an error message reading "your computer is haunted" (with options "ok" and "uh-oh" below), a ouija board in a qwerty keyboard layout, and more.

the back of the postcard, in light shades of the same colors. the bit you're meant to write in is styled like a browser window.

kaylee 🫀@kayleerowena· May 12

i'm so excited about how the colors for affairs of the haunt are coming along & i truly can't wait for everyone to read this book. it's gonna be so good!!! #art #comics #AOTH🫀

a cropped page from affairs of the haunt (out spring 2027!!) showing fel, a demon with glowing yellow eyes and long wavy white-blonde hair, floating intimidatingly against a red background. flames emerge near her feet, and inky flamelike patterns swirl up behind her.

a cropped double page spread showing fel (demon) and vivian (ghost) floating through lilah's dreamscape. floating picture frames show various moments from lilah's life and aspects of her personality, and colorful ink swirls around them.

a page in a limited palette of reds, oranges, and some light purple, showing an exorcism being conducted in an ancient church. floating candles frame the panels, and the final panel shows the purple exorcism circle sparking to life.

fel and vivian being ejected from lilah's dreams as lilah shoots upright in bed next to her sleeping partner, cam. fel and vivian tumble out of lilah's head and through the bedroom wall, landing dazed on their backs in the hallway.

my silly little bat guys 🐦 #art #dccomics (might make stickers of these? who's to say)

illustrations in a simplified style of dc comics' robins: dick grayson, jason todd, tim drake, stephanie brown, and damian wayne

two more in the same style of stephanie brown and cassandra cain as batgirl(s). cass is doing the gesture that's popped up a bunch in recent batman comics where you point up next to your ears to mimic batman's cowl's pointy bat ears.

screaming, crying, throwing up, etc 😵‍💫

disclaimer that this was an art school thesis so it was 1. just a big comics project and 2. junior year instead of senior year for some reason? anyways: mine was a 21-page comic adaptation of annie proulx's brokeback mountain

kaylee 🫀@kayleerowena· Apr 14

hey #portfolioday ! i'm kaylee & i'm a comic artist / illustrator who loves ghosts and the color pink. currently looking to line up work (comics, cover/ttrpg/album art, etc) for summer/fall 2026! 🫀 kayleerowena.com 💌 kayleerowena@gmail.com 🍒 kayleerowena.bigcartel.com ☕️ ko-fi.com/kayleerowena

an illustration in shades of purple, red, pink, and black of various picture frames with ghosts in them - a woman with flowers growing out of her neck, another without a head and with floating eyeballs and nerves where a head should be, one with a red gash in the canvas, one holding a severed head on a plate.

a comic page from the pitch for AFFAIRS OF THE HAUNT, my debut graphic novel (with writer jordan alsaqa, coming out spring 2027!). it shows fel, a demon with long white-blonde hair, trailing cam, a human, down a staircase and into the basement.

a blue and bright pink haunted house on a light purple background.

a double-page comic spread from THE WITCH'S WINGS AND OTHER TERRIFYING TALES (an "are you afraid of the dark?" graphic novel, available wherever comics are sold!) showing a young girl on a haunted bus surrounded by glowing green ghosts.

book cover preview 👀👻 #AOTH🫀 #art

a cropped bit of the cover art for AFFAIRS OF THE HAUNT. vivian (ghost) and fel (demon) are visible as large portraits behind a haunted house. vivian faces the viewer and looks off to the side (towards fel), while fel has her back mostly turned away.
