About

I’m Wriply M. Bennet, an artist and illustrator based in San Francisco, focused on storytelling through character design, illustration, and graphic work. I create watercolor and digital illustrations, build narratives through storyboarding and writing, and develop visuals for campaigns, comics, and educational materials—often centered on community, justice, and queer/trans experiences.

I’ve contributed as an artist and designer to film and multiple social-justice initiatives, designing characters and backstories for projects like Tran/futurism, creating mural and district artwork, and producing comic and educational content such as safer queer sex materials and community-facing campaign art. I also write and develop creative works for screen and stage, and I bring a performer’s energy—singing and songwriting—into the way I tell stories visually and on paper.
