Hi, I’m Maria Audrey Samudro. I’m a 2D animator, storyboard artist, concept artist, and graphic designer with a Master of Arts in Animation from the University of the Arts London. My practice blends hand-drawn illustration with digital tools to tell character-driven stories and create expressive visuals. I love exploring storytelling through animation, illustration, and publication design, and I enjoy sharing drawing tips with peers through community clubs like Goodenough Drawing Club. In my work, I focus on storyboarding, poster design, and collaboration on animated projects. I’m excited to keep pushing playful, accessible visuals that spark imagination and invite audiences to look closer.
