Most of their work features original characters that explore different queer identities and relationships.Mi has worked as the lead artist for the independently published queer art and literature zines Pinkwashed Quarterly and The Mausoleum, where they produced unique cover art for each issue as well as page illuminations and title pages.They have also worked in partnership with organisations such as Comics Youth CIC and Wild and Kind CIC where they were commissioned to create artwork that raised money and awareness for marginalised individuals.In August 2018, Mi showcased their art series 'Drink Your Gender' at People Power on Paper, an art exhibition at Cave Pimlico, showcasing young artists and their art discussing modern social progress.

Illustration Portfolio
Illustrative Works
My present work is created in a digital medium and predominantly focuses around themes of queer identities paired with magic, eldritch entities and mysticism. My art is heavily inspired by the art nouveau and pre-Raphaelite movements, as well as the symbolic meanings involved in the popular Victorian movement of floriography. I capture characters of my own original designs who exist with fantasy settings inspired by faith, academia, self-exploration and above all else, the queer experience.Being an individual who experiences gender in a more abstract sense than most common folk, I find myself reflecting my own self-expressions and experimentations in my art. I explore various gender expressions through my work, such as trans individuals transcending the societal normalities of gender.
The Oracle Diviner
Between Autumn 2021 and Spring 2024 I created and illustrated an original twenty-two card oracle deck, The Oracle Diviner. This deck was inspired by my love for Dungeons and Dragons, as well as queer myticism and self love. The deck includes a unique guide book, with symbolism and spreads themed around inner healing and overcoming trauma.
Character Design
With my work so inspired and rooted in dnd and narrative story telling, I enjoy designing characters for fantasty and magical settings. I strive to create characters with a range of backgrounds, aesthetics, and body types. It is important to me to express the indivual character's personality through their clothing as well as parts that others may overlook, such as hair and accessories.
The key element of my character design is queer expression, showcasing a variety of gender expressions through both body and clothing.

Published and Featured Works and Exhibitions
Comics Youth cic (2022)

Towards the end of 2021 and start of 2022 I was selected to feature in a trans educational zine put together by Comics Youth CIC, a creative community organisation that aims to empower youth in the Liverpool City region.
How It Is and How It Should Be- Shaping A Future for Trans Young People, was a zine focused on featuring work and creative media from trans and gender-queer individuals. I created a piece centred around the theme of 'trans joy'.
Community voices (2019)
In 2019, one of my pride button badges was entered and showcased in the CommUnity Voices Exhibition, curated by the Discover Bucks Museum.The exhibition represented a number of minority communities from Bucks county including the LGBTQ+ community, which my badge represented.My badge 'Be You' encourages pride in queer identities and for being an authentic version of yourself whether out or still questioning and finding yourself.

Pinkwashed Quarterly (2019-2020)
During it's time in production, I worked as the lead illustrator for the Queer run and independently published zine, Pinkwashed Quarterly.Pinkwashed Quarterly (2019-2020) was a zine dedicated to the revival of the 1890s counter culture and following the ideals of the Arts and crafts movement and featured art and literature from queer creators that followed a set theme or idea.I designed my own artworks for each theme that featured as the cover art for the issues, always monotone illustrations on yellow backgrounds. I also themed my cover art throughout the issues with custom page illuminations that reflected not only the volumes' themes, but the overarching aesthethic of Pinkwashed.
PEOPLE POWER ON PAPER (2018)
In August 2018, my series of work 'Drink Your Gender' showcased in the pop up exhibition 'People Power On Paper' that was held at Cave Space, Pimlico.The event featured young artists and art that discussed modern social progress. I decided to focus on the topic of gender queer identities and questioned the issue of how society views those who identify outside of their assigned sex.
