About

Hi, my name is Ana and I am illustrator and 2D animator. I get to do what I love most—create. From the initial concept to the final animation, I manage the entire creative process. From sketching storyboards and crafting illustrations to bringing those images to life with 2D animation, I enjoy every step of the process. My creativity extends beyond animation. I’m deeply passionate about illustrating, particularly for children’s books and other imaginative projects. There’s a unique joy in crafting characters and scenes that can ignite wonder and excitement, especially in young readers. Cartoons, with Disney as a major influence, have always fueled my imagination and continue to inspire my work, whether I’m animating or illustrating. Illustrating and animating are more than just my job; they’re my way of sharing my imagination with the world. I find joy in every project I take on, whether it’s an animated video that explains a concept or a charming illustration that tells a story. For me, the best part of my work is the ability to create something meaningful and delightful, something that resonates with people of all ages

The picture book Join Vita the Heron in Planica was created as part of the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships Planica 2023.

The book, with sustainability-focused content, is educational in nature, featuring Vita the Heron, the official mascot, as the main character. It is intended for preschool children and pupils of the first three grades of primary school. The story takes children through all four seasons in Planica, encouraging responsible and environmentally friendly behavior. The book was also published in English.
I created all the illustrations for this beautiful children’s book.

Children's picture book - Join Vita the Heron in Planica
  • Children’s Book Illustrator

The children’s picture book The Magical Accordion was published to mark the 60th anniversary of Lojze Slak’s music. It tells the story of a boy named Luka and his accordion, interwoven with five of the most beloved songs by the Lojze Slak Ensemble. With his magical accordion, Luka embarks on a journey where he meets The Beekeeper, chases after The Rainbow, visits the Postojna Cave, wonders Which Flowers to Pick for Mother, and finally plays Ana Štiman.
The book also includes the lyrics of these songs and QR codes linking to their recordings.

My Portfolio

This is my portfolio – a selection of works I wish to present to potential clients. It represents me best as a playful, creative, and dynamic person who, at heart, is still a bit of a child. That part of my personality shines most in my creative work. Inside, you’ll find a variety of projects: from graphic design and children’s book illustrations to 2D animated explainer videos, as well as my most personal projects – the children’s picture book The Magical Accordion and the animated story about the music legend Lojze Slak, my grandfather, to whom both works are dedicated. animator illustrator resume
