About
Hello, I'm Sow Ay!
I am a Clermont-based illustrator and comic book creator. I started drawing as a child and never stopped. I draw cute characters, but I also illustrate the difficulties encountered by LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent people, being queer and autistic myself.
I also imagine dinosaurs, ghosts, and various characters evolving in colorful, sometimes dark or magical universes, and you can discover all of this among my creations!
You can find some of my illustrations, stories, and comics on my social media. I raise awareness about autism, mental health, or life as a queer person, but I also create humorous comics, children's illustrations and stories, as well as share my daily life with Sully, my hypersensitive dog.
But that's not all!
I also create illustrations on commission, lead comic strip workshops or introductory graphic design workshops (in recreation centers, media libraries, etc.), and I participate in events such as conventions, craft markets, or exhibitions: you can find the next dates on the homepage!
My creations are mainly sold through my online store, but you can also find them at Drôles de Zèbres, in Clermont-Ferrand, and on HelloClermont.fr for my posters of the Auvergne Rhône-Alpes region!
Thank you for supporting my work, and if you have an inquiry or would like to collaborate, please email me at sow.ayad@gmail.com!
