Hello!
I'm V. Gagnon! I'm a freelance illustrator and comic creator who likes weird folklore, eldritch monsters, and vivid colors. Currently available for illustration, vis-dev, and book/comic cover work!

Check out the graphic novels I worked on below!
A large moth creature on a right yellow background with seven vibrantly colored wings, pale human hands, and a smaller white moth covering it's face. Illustration depicting a Roman bust like figure (Caligula) surrounded by three red-tipped daggers, the looming presence of a dark haired woman (Agrippina the Younger), and flanked by symmetrical profiles of a woman painted gold (Livilla). Based on the 'Plot of Three Daggers,' a failed assassination conspiracy between Agrippina the Younger, Livilla, and Lepidus to murder Emperor Caligula in 39 AD. Flat/Lineless Illustration of various cute bulb plant creatures, rendered in lime green, teal, and light blue on a white background. Flat/lineless illustration featuring three characters from The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos illuminating by a dramatic flashlight.

We're in the last week of the campaign, so now the sappy.

This represents my hopes for being a comics writer. Over 7 years, I saved money waiting tables to afford an artist for the next story. It was slow. Often discouraging. I persisted. And now: this book.

I've been seeing my favorite fuzzy friends around! 🍂🐛
Illustration of a wooly (sometimes spelled woolly) bear caterpillar. It's fuzzy and cute and has a happy little smile. There's lines radiating around it and above it says "it's wooly time!" in lowercase hand lettering. The background is a light orange checkered pattern.

Story Spotlight!

"Midnight, Christmas" is an exploration of legacy in what feels like apocalyptic times. With crisp, vibrant art by @wyrmsfornerves.bsky.social this ghost tale exists in the cold and dark, punctuated with stained glass light.

I love making comics so much. I love figuring out the pacing, how much to show vs tell, composing each panel and the page as a whole, clever little sound effects or lettering touches, finding ways to streamline the process without compromising quality. ☺️

Ideal story-telling medium if you ask me.

Trying to finish more repeating pattern designs as of late - here's a few older ones I finally uploaded to my Spoonflower shop

www.spoonflower.com/profiles/wyr...
Image features four rows of repeating patterns, each row is divided into two columns featuring the art with a light background and a dark background. Row 1 features general objects associated with witchcraft; dried herbs, broomsticks, mortar and pestles, cauldrons, etc, illustrated in brown and beige tones. Row 2 features botanical objects associated with witchcraft; wreaths, potted plants, pressed flowers, terrariums, etc, illustrated in green and beige tones. Row 3 features spiritual objects associated with witchcraft; crystal balls, amulets, spell books, telescopes, etc, illustrated in purple and beige tones. Row 4 features kitchen objects associated with witchcraft; kettles, frying pans, cookbooks, salt & pepper shakers, etc, illustrated in orange and beige tones. Image features four rows of repeating patterns, each row is divided into two columns featuring the art with a light background and a dark background. Row 1 features ocean objects associated with witchcraft; driftwood, sand, seashells, sea glass, etc, illustrated in teal and beige tones. Row 2 features fiber arts objects associated with witchcraft; scarves, knitting needles, embroidery loops, yarn, etc, illustrated in yellow, orange, and beige tones. Row 3 features modern objects associated with witchcraft; headphones, handheld games, emojis, cellphones, etc, illustrated in pink, green, and gray tones. Row 4 features weather objects associated with witchcraft; windchimes, bellows, storm water, bells, etc, illustrated in light blue, cream, and gray tones. Image is split in half diagonally to show two repeating patterns. The top half features cones of ice cream that look like they have a cat’s face and ears, placed in a row above yellow, cream and light pink stripes. The bottom half features a vertical pink stripe pattern with hearts made of strawberries. Image is split in thirds diagonally to show three variant colors (blue, pink & yellow) of a repeating pattern design. The design features several sleeping cats & kittens sleeping on pillows rendered in pastel colors.
