Alexa Sharpe is a Filipino-American illustrator specializing in books and comics.Folklore and decadent historical fashions are the crux of her work. Drawing influence from her fondness of gothic tales, as well as from the superstitions of her Southeast Asian heritage, she seeks to walk the line between elegance and horror.
She uses ephemeral lines and wispy textures to build rich, frenetic scenes—ghostly rooms in old mansions, or dense forests that could swallow you whole. In her lush realms, ruled by spirits, witches, and beasts, she explores the space where terror and beauty meet.
