Hi, I'm Janhavi! I am a visual artist and motion designer. I have worked on several short films, across the animation pipeline. I love the blend of art and technology, and I am constantly experimenting with new techniques. My workflow often combines 2D and 3D with a lot of attention to stylization and blending real-world materiality with detailed illustrative works. Even though my personal style is hybrid and quite experimental, I can easily adapt to different visual styles.
