Emilia Strilchuk is a comic artist and writer, born and raised in Ukraine, and migrated to Canada about 10 years ago. She currently resides in Ontario with her partner and two cats. Emilia takes inspiration from her personal experiences and from the world around her to create artworks that can be relatable and can bring people some joy and comfort. She’s created a zine called Gently — a sketch collection and gentle tips for artists and creators. Last year, Emilia published her autobio graphic novel Be Yourself! Oh, not like that…. Her latest project is a comic book series on Kickstarter entitled Oriana: The Forgotten Deities.

The story of Oriana: The Forgotten Deities goes like this:  “In a world abandoned by the Gods ages ago, their absence robbed humanity of their powers, resulting in devastation and natural calamities, leaving only myths behind. Enter Karolina, a young girl who stumbles upon an ancient secret. Will the delicate balance between the human realm and the realm of magic be restored, just as it existed thousands of years ago? Embarking on a journey of discovery, Karolina finds herself confronted with unforeseen: not all is as it seems.”
