about
My pen name is Dirchansky (she/any) and I'm a storyteller and comic creator living on the lands of Indigenous people in 'Canada'. I experiment with all genres and styles, but gravitate towards creating stories with subtle character feelings, expressions, gestures, interactions, and relationships.
