Erin Kubo

Erin Kubo is an illustrator and comic artist whose work features subtly expressive characters, lush environments, and dreamy details rendered in a mixture of watercolor, ink, and digital painting. She was born and raised in New Jersey before moving to Baltimore to study at Maryland Institute College of Art. After earning her B.F.A in Illustration in 2016, she moved to Seattle where she now resides. She spends her time reading horror stories, petting neighborhood cats, and yearning for perfectly ripe tomatoes.

She has brought a wide range of stories to life, including a comic written by NYT-bestselling author Jordan Ifueko for Jim Henson's STORYTELLERS anthology published by BOOM! Studios. Erin's darkly humorous illustrated poem, THE CHRISTMAS CREATURE, was narrated in a video by NYT-bestselling author Hank Green. Her upcoming graphic novel, THE EMPTY HOUSE, based on a script by Eisner-nominated author Megan Wagner Lloyd, is slated for publication in the Fall of 2028.
