Bee on a Lark

I live in Thailand. สวัสดีค่ะ! ฉันชื่อบีส์ 🐝🐝🐝 I am a writer and comic artist drawing + writing about my silly OCs. For funsies. As a bit. https://www.patreon.com/LarkandWren (you may need to copy paste the full link...the html is busted on some devices for some reason, sobs)

Come, meet our characters and their stories!

🎼Read Hi-Note!🎶

It's about three musicians just trying to live their lives and do well by each other on the coast of British Columbia. (It's also home to that Margie ticket comic that you guys really seem to like <3)

Looking for something a little more fantastical?

Read our webtoon

🪡Woven✨

The dragons have fled and the mages are nowhere to be found, taking with them all forms of magic that once permeated the kingdom. Born blind, Ayşe strives to find her place in a world she perceives very differently than those around her, a world in fear after a violent uprising. As she sets out to master the illegal art of weaving spells, will she unravel the truth about kingdoms, mages, and dragons?

A Hare and The Wolves

[OCs: Wolves of Danu]

[painted-bees]

this isn't done and I prolly won't finish it because it wasn't smth I actually planned to do but I really needed smth to test CSP with and so here's a weird clergyman who's kinda horny abt werewolves.

[OC: Wolves of Danu]

[painted-bees]

two page style test for Wolves of Danu! Just to see how it feels.

The perfect time to post these is during the middle of the night, while the entire western hemisphere is fast asleep lmao

If you recognize this sequence, it's because we did this same test already over a year ago--right after coming off Woven. I'm actually kinda glad that our burnout kept us off the project at the time, because they style we were test driving back then was not very suitable for the kinda story we want to tell.

Fast forward to today, and we're definately feeling better about this one! Not only does it suit the victorian vibes a lot more [the previous version had a very stark "film noir" kind of feel that was too contemporary imo], but it's also just the most fun I've had drawing comic panels in a long, long time. Like--hell yeah, I can draw 3 whole books like this, let's goooo!!(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و ̑̑

I do kinda miss being in a western hemisphere timezone...I get to see so many more art posts QvQ all this stuff gets burried by the time I wake up in my home timezone, and then the posts throughout the day are so sparse...
