Progress not perfection...

I'm by no means a professional and am very much an amateur who hasn't devoted her life to comics since she was a teenager in the '90s.

 I got re-inspired in 2016 and managed to create my first 3 issues of animated effects web, digital, and printed comics. It's now 2021 and with my health issues, moving, and family things going on, it meant I needed to take a break and focus on just taking care of my basic needs. Now I feel slowly and gradually I'm getting back into it, starting over with the Origins story.

So my comic will be messy, and constantly getting tweaked, as I develop the world(s) and the storylines. If there are plot holes and things that really don't make sense I no doubt will spot them and correct them both myself and with the help of others. My art I hope will improve in technique and skill as I develop my own style whilst I'm doing courses to help support my growth as an artist and comic creator. 

It's not perfect and never will be. I believe in progress, not perfection. I have the freedom to create on my terms and to self-publish. To charge prices I feel are right for me and to trust that those who value me will support me accordingly. 

My ideas are mine to share and come from a very personal inner space - my soul laid bare shared with the world for those that wish to visit and be part of my creation. 

I hope you will be part of my journey, and explore the world of The Sanctuary with me.

Welcome to ...

I originally created The Sanctuary comic in the mid-nineties, with the central character being a fantasy yet real-life-inspired version of me.

“It’s the mid 90’s and I live on a council estate in Northampton, UK, it’s the evening and I’m walking to the local corner shop to buy booze - good old White Lightening & MD 20/20 for a house party I’m having with friends. 

Then a large book 📖 in the bushes by the gravel path catches my eye. It’s rather ornate - like a spellbook. I bend down to look at it and pick it up opening the pages to find strange writing and drawings of dragons among other things. Suddenly the amethyst on my necklace I'm wearing starts glowing, and the book flashes purple and a portal opens up in front of me. I drop the book but before it even hits the ground both me and then book get sucked into the portal…

 

The next thing I know I’m laying on the ground in a completely different location, as I open my eyes I see planets 🪐 as well as 2 moons 🌙 in the sky… “

I was inspired to take up my comic again in 2016 and as a result of new self-publishing in comics, I was able to successfully create, publish and sell my first 3 issues. After a lot of personal crisis and a move and more health issues, I’ve started to settle down a bit and pick up where I left off.

The Sanctuary: Origins is in the works.
