the artist

Amanda Lafrenais is native to Texas, born in Humble and currently living in Clute — home to the Mosquito Festival. Yes. She hopes to escape this dull town someday, but until then has made herself a comfy existence in a little apartment with her fellow-comicker-husband and the dopiest cat in the world who isn’t good for much, let alone comics.

The artist has contributed work to Slipshine, a subscription-only collection of erotic comics. You can find her contribution in the Artist Showcase. She will also be contributing to “Smut Peddler,” a published anthology of quality erotic comics being organized by Spike of Templar, Arizona fame, all created by female artists and writers.
