Hint #5: the last one! Somewhere in the magical shuffle of the print stacks are my prints Wolf Hands and "out (of)", both printed - like all my risograph printed work - here in Portland, at local studios like Outlet PDX and the Independent Publishing Resource Center. Not a lot of Wolf Hands left!

Hint #4: Where There's Smoke is nestled somewhere near the register! This experimental slice-of-life comic follows a harpy and a serpent as they flee an unspoken threat. Fun fact, I drew most of it with a broken stick dipped in ink! You can read it here: www.elkillustration.com/where-theres...

Hint #3: I Don't Know How to Say This (이걸 어떻게 말해야 할지 모르겠어) is in good company near the picture books. Originally made for 뿌리 / ROOTS: Korean Diaspora, this is an illustrated autobio essay about growing up multiracial, queer, and trans while isolated in a white suburb. Careful, it will make you cry.

Hint #2: Unmasked (blue edition!) is hiding in plain sight on the Risorama wall! Okay, I concede, this one isn't a hint, it's a map with a big red X. But the Risorama wall was so gorgeous I just had to include the whole thing. And look at that fun signage! John and Cielle know what they're doing.

Hint #1: Constructing A Sheep is hiding near the windows. This is a story about someone you know. A reflection on trust and violation, Constructing A Sheep criticizes who we decide is innocent and why. You can read this one in full on my portfolio website: www.elkillustration.com/constructing...
