A genuine honour to have my work lurking under Evangeline’s jackets 🥹

Me: I see we’re going to have a lot of ocean on this map. May I please use this as an excuse to draw a stupidly elaborate compass rose and a sea monster completely unrelated to the story? Alix’s editor: Yes, but only if you can squeeze my bullet pointed list of things into the border Me: Deal 😎

Draw fanart of all the things you love! You never know where it may lead. Sometimes it leads to getting to draw lady knights for your favourite author with elaborate borders where we tried our damnest to squeeze as many Easter eggs in as possible 😌

WIP 🖋️✨

QTP with powerful women ♥️ Grendel’s mother, from Beowulf. I love her so much you don’t understand 😌

That time I got got given the Inkheart job and discovered I only want to draw fight scenes if I can charge them through the roof with homoeroticism 😌

Qrp with an art piece you’re proud of! Pen and ink I wanted to draw this scene from Piranesi from the moment I read it. I loooove drawing statues, and drama. Took me weeks on and off, and every moment was a delight 😌

Death & The Maiden 💀💃🏻✨

If you see this, post a knight! She’s technically a queen, but… she’s on the battlefield nonetheless ⚔️

Hello! I’m Alice! Vietnamese pen and ink illustrator currently based in Shropshire, UK. I like illustrating for books, anything historical and fantastical, ESPECIALLY if it involves knights and swords and people in distress ⚔️✨ Portfolio: alicecao.co.uk Instagram: www.instagram.com/alicecaoillu...
