A colorful illustration of a woman with red hair holding a soda, wearing a T-shirt that says 'My Boyfriend Is Out of Town'. A handwritten note next to her introduces her as Ilona and explains that she makes hand-drawn comics and illustrations to get through the day.

Part I.

What People Are Saying

Just keep making stuff. You make my eyes hate the world less.

Your comics place you at the center of a kind of memory — sometimes ethereal, sometimes raw — that feels like reading someone else’s personal diary. There’s always a clear emotion running through your work that leaves me wanting to know more.

— Nick P.
After visiting your website and exploring your Restaurant Project, I was genuinely impressed by the thought, detail, and charm in your work.
