In 2019 she received a diploma in Animation and Concept Art from Vancouver Film School, and completed a BFA in Illustration from Emily Carr University of Art + Design in 2026. She has exhibited in various shows since 2016, including in DIY galleries and the Gordon Smith Gallery of Canadian Art. In the past she’s worked in marketing, TTRPG, and animation, and is currently in publishing, including zines, comics/graphic novels, and music marketing materials. You can pick up her work at Lucky’s Comics in Vancouver. She’s currently background lurking on a graphic novel project separate of her own with writer Justin Heggs (of Death Metal Duck renown). She DJs vinyl records for a side-hustle. Annie takes a fascination with the intersections of queerness, rock n’ roll, and horror. The more guts the better. She’s also interested in subcultural identity, character studies, and the deconstruction of the sociopolitical structures of arts industry spaces. In non-pretentious dweeb terms: why the music and film worlds are so often implicated in devious-ass shit. Whether she deconstructs this effectively or makes it more evil is like totally up to you, man. Most of her practice is digital, but preliminaries are done in charcoal, ink pen or pencil on paper. Sometimes she draws in dip pen and she has recently picked up risograph design. This website highlights her sleazier work, which is what she really loves doing. Sleaze, kitsch, filth, perversion and horrorslop are her middle names. Creatives she admires include Dennis Cooper, REX, Steve Albini, Poppy Z. Brite, Russ Meyer, Pasolini, R. Crumb, Blixa Bargeld, Mike Diana, Eric Stanton, Kristin Hayter, Jhonn Balance, Alan Vega, Jeffrey Silverthorne, Kathy Acker, Takashi Miike, Robert Williams, and Diamanda Galas. https://www.anniethesia.com/contact daily 0.75 2026-10-22 https://www.anniethesia.com/comix daily 1.0 2026-10-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aab86fca2772c0b3b266c22/6cda8c4e-a303-4406-a56a-3fa659a9bc1e/npr_Cover_copy.png COMIX - NO PARTNER RULE (2026) Toxic and evil queer polycule, anyone?

Led only by the town’s preacher and their own instincts, survival is slim and drama runs high. Art & Story: Annie Thesia Art & Script edited on advisory by various students and professors at Vancouver Film School in 2019. Genres: psychological horror, monster, drama, Southern Gothic
