About

Hi, I’m Jazzy Blackwell, an experienced caricature artist and 2D animator based in Cleveland, Ohio. I have a knack for creating exaggerated and clean line portraits while engaging closely with customers to provide a friendly and comfortable experience. I also have hands-on experience in storyboarding and animation, working closely with directors to ensure all project deadlines are met and scripts are adapted effectively for animation.

My background as a student ambassador at the Cleveland Institute of Art has helped me develop strong communication skills and the ability to share firsthand experiences with prospective students, guiding them to access the right institutional resources. I am passionate about art and animation, continuously refining my skills using software like Toon Boom Harmony, Storyboard Pro, and Adobe Photoshop.
