About the
Archive

Bestiary Archive is my personal encyclopedia of mythical creatures from around the world.

Each entry brings together creature design, imagined anatomy, habitat, origins and folklore — with illustrations and notes to explore at your own pace.

Each creature will have its own entry, opening in a new tab so you can keep the archive close while you read.

Some creatures also have a story to tell. Follow the link to Bestiary Tales to meet them in a comic.

A Note from Meow Lisa

I’ve always been drawn to the creatures at the edges of stories — the ones we fear, misunderstand, or can’t quite forget.

This archive is where I collect their shapes, histories and possibilities, and give them a place on my shelves.

Thank you for looking a little closer, and for keeping curiosity alive. ♡
