Kate Ashwin is a comic artist who lives in West Yorkshire, England, with her two fat cats and one very understanding husband. Her interests include houseplants, cheese, drawing people in nice coats with strange facial expressions, and never drawing a horse and carriage ever again.
She’s drawn and written over 1000 pages of webcomics since 2002, her most current project being the award-winning Victorian-era adventure story Widdershins, which is currently on its tenth Kickstarter-funded volume. She also wrote a novel which you can take a look at here, if you enjoy a goofy cyberpunk heist!
Kate has also contributed to, co-edited and provided Kickstarter support to the Cautionary Fables and Fairytales books, written stories for Dark Horse Presents and theTammy and Jinty annual, contributed artwork to critically-acclaimed kid’s weekly comic The Phoenix, as well as being the current artist for Beryl the Peril in the yearly Dandy Annuals since 2025! She doesn’t mean to brag, but she also makes a mean chorizo chilli.
