Speaking of must-watch Netflix animated shows: PLUTO. Holy crap. It’s like VIOLET EVERGARDEN with robots and a hardboiled detective vibe. Only one episode in and I’m already hooked. How is this the first I’m hearing of this show??

BOOK 👻

This July is going to be a lot for me. I’m catching up on emails still, and trying to get my life in order with the book launch, day-job, and other priorities—thank you all for your patience, I’m doing my best 😔🙏

Welcome new followers! ✨ I'm Johanna, I'm a fantasy illustrator and comic artist! I created THE GHOSTKEEPER, a YA graphic novel about a therapist for ghosts, coming July 23 with Penguin Teen! I also like video games & TTRPGs, and drawing about them ⚔️ 👻 theghostkeeper.carrd.co 🎨 johannamation.com

Raven sends snuggles 🫂

Fun fact! 🐱👻 Muffin the ghost cat, who causes all sorts of deadpan mischief in THE GHOSTKEEPER, is based on my mom’s Norwegian Forest/Maine Coon(?)/Ragdoll(??) mix cat, Clove, who is a crotchety old lady

Quote post with several ghosts!! 👻🏴‍☠️🐱

I got Clip studio paint back when it was doing a one-time purchase deal, so I’m teaching myself that. Here’s a more thorough list of possible replacements:

The Fig Economy

“I want a Philosopher-monarchy”

BOOK LAUNCH EVENT!! JULY 23!! 👻📚 I will sign your book, there will be a live reading of the first 30 pages (with voices, OF COURSE~) and you'll get to ask me hardball questions like "why is Dorian the way he is?" and "did you consult any actual ghosts while writing this?"

Raven and I read comics together on the balcony while listening to the rain, which helped me feel better. (No chilchuck yelling at us this time 🐿️)

Cynic tax: my kittycat Raven being cute and soft, for the collective lowering of our blood pressures 🐈‍⬛

Cats of Yore

I am a fantasy illustrator and comic artist available for work ✍️ Here’s my and my mom’s cats as D&D characters, and my upcoming graphic novel has a ghost cat named Muffin 👻 🐱

This lil guy lives in the tree outside my house and yells at my cat, I named him Chilchuck 🐿️

I’m a sitcom lad at heart— —but also I’ve watched ARCANE season 1 at least seven times

What TV series have you watched all the way through more than three times?

Happy #pride month! 🏳️‍🌈 If you’re looking for a new LGBTQ read, and would like to support an LGBTQ creator, my comic THE GHOSTKEEPER features and bi & ace protagonist in a queer relationship, and comes out NEXT MONTH 🤩 🌈

A lovely review of THE GHOSTKEEPER from School Library Journal! 📝 👻 💕 (Apparently I need to read some TJ Klune books, bc this is the third review in a row I’ve seen that compared my work to his 👀) www.slj.com/review/the-g...

I binged Dungeon Meshi on the deck with my comfy cat, enjoying the nice summer breeze ⛅️ feeling a bit better now 🐈‍⬛

I had all these plans today to Glaze all my art, delete artwork from places and reupload, make promo posts for my book etc, but honestly I'm just feeling kinda defeated and tired today. Might go on a walk and read some comics instead, and pretend the world isn't the way it is for a while 😔

Happy #Pride! THE GHOSTKEEPER has a canonically bi/ace protagonist 🌈 In fact, the three principal living characters (and a handful of the ghosts) are LGBTQ!
