Welcome! I’m Syne Mitchell (she/her) and this is my website.

My current project is My Ex, Vlad, it’s a monster romance comic that is funny, feminist, and affirms that sometimes the most loving thing you can do… is break up.

I started learning the art & craft of comics at the end of 2019 and I’ve studied at Hugo House, Bellevue College, and The Sequential Artist’s Workshop, where I undertook a year-long course. I was recently accepted to the MFA program at The Center For Cartoon Studies, where I’ll start classes in the fall of 2025.

In previous chapters of my life, I’ve written science-fiction novels and taught weaving.

I live in Vermont, with two kittens: Yuki and Yoru, meaning “snow” and “night” in Japanese. Double-extra bonus points if you recognize the manga that inspired their names.

You pronounce my name with a long ‘i’ sound, as in “Auld Lang Syne”, or “sign” or “sine wave.” My parents’ stories on how I got that name never corroborated, so feel free to make up your own.
