Kelsi Jo Silva is an artist and illustrator based out of Denver, Co who found some acclaim as the illustrator for the Ela Cat series of children's books (the first of which won both a MoonBeam award & a CIPPA EVVY award for illustration). But that was ages ago. More recently, she has worked on comics such as Cthulhu Is Hard to Spell Vol. 3, and The Amazing Adventures of Bart Bartson and Demolition Dinosaur. In late 2024 Kelsi released her first fully illustrated graphic novel, Off Menu with author Oliver Gerlach - and followed it earlier this year with the sequel Restaurant At the Edge of the World.
