United Kingdom

Devi is a software professional by day and a story weaver who would love to dive into a world of moons, cats, clocks, blues, and much of muchness.

"I thoroughly enjoy participating in the annual Inktober fest, initiated by Jake Parker. This event sparked my interest in doodling, which eventually evolved into creating my first graphic novel, Amla Mater, from sketches and memory fragments.

I have been featured in The Inking Woman: 250 Years of Women Cartoon and Comic Artists in Britain (Myriad Editions 2018), a groundbreaking picture-led celebration of the work of over 100 named British artists."
