Hello and welcome to the heart of my website!
I'm Snail (they/them), a queer and autistic creative and this is where I will be sharing my work and interests. Although this is currently a work in progress, please feel free to take a look around!
Storytelling is a big part of the work I make and am drawn to. I'm a big fan of narratives and formats that break storytelling conventions or subvert expectations! I'm a bit all over the place in terms of my interests so my work has varying themes but some common ones you might spot are the body, queerness, horror (particularly body horror), transformation, grief, mental health and disability. I also work in a range of styles and mediums and love mixing them together to see what happens - I'm all about encouraging self expression and experimentation!
I'd say I'm primarily an illustrator but I also play around with game development, animation and writing. I like to make comics and zines but I'm also currently working on a mixed media project inspired by ARGs, analog horror and unfiction media in general.
My work will be over on the hand page and it will be a mix of stuff to showcase my range and reflect my personality - whatever I feel happy sharing here, I suppose. This can include personal work, previous projects and fanart.
I'm planning on putting a lot of my inspirations, special interests and any essays that they motivate me to write in the head page, as well as any resources relating to any of my interests in case you're intrigued or have any similar ones!
Anyways thanks for checking this out, I really appreciate it!
