Artist Bio: Mikayla is an illustrator with a strength for storytelling and an interest for comics/graphic novels. During the past year and a half, she found her passion for writing as well as illustrating fun, quirky and sometimes spooky stories. 

Her work contains themes of the supernatural or unknown as well as environmental aspects. Intertwining these subjects may seem obscure but her goal is focus on subjects that matter most to her as well as creating space for those who feel out of place in this world. Mikayla has a lighter side to her work as well, creating bright and joyful pieces that feature animals for that is one of her top skills.

Project Description: The Lonely Phantom is a 32-page comic issue introducing Genevieve Caius. Genevieve “Gen” Caius is the strong-minded protagonist of the story. As a human she was an environmental scientist, dedicating her time to helping protect the environment and find a way to bring back the dying plant life. Along the way of discovery something goes horribly wrong and meets her untimely demise, or so she thought. She ends up turning into a phantom, stuck in between the worlds of the living and the dead.
