About the Artist

Elodie Arbogast is a 25 year old clown from Arizona. He began teaching himself to draw in sixth grade, and took his first art class his sophomore year of college. He realized he wanted to work in sequential art after seeing a touring LAIKA exhibit in Universal Studios in 2016 with his father and brother. Ever since then, he has been self-educating and practicing with every program and workshop he can get his hands on.
Elodie currently lives in Portland, Oregon. He works at LAIKA during the week, and sells his comics at zine fests and art markets on the weekends.

Elodie likes colorful maximalism, cartoons, vampires, magical realism, Halloween, stuffed animals and, most importantly, his friends.
