Available to hire
I’m Anna Mariia Pavlenko, a 2D animator and character-focused concept artist with experience in character design, storyboarding, and digital illustration. I love building expressive characters and bringing them to life through animation, especially the clean-up and in-between frames that make motion feel smooth and intentional.
