Available to hire
Hi, I’m Anna Floto. I’m a multidisciplinary illustrator and creative storyteller who loves making vibrant, engaging visuals for children’s books and educational projects. I enjoy developing characters, scenes, and visual narratives that spark imagination and bring stories to life. I’m proficient with digital tools like Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and Procreate, with a keen eye for color, composition, and playful detail. I’m collaborative, responsive to feedback, organized, and able to deliver high-quality work independently within deadlines. I’m excited to contribute my creativity and visual storytelling to projects that inspire young readers.
I’ve built and led collaborative projects across galleries and education settings, translating ideas into clear visuals and experiences. I’m passionate about storytelling through image and design, and I love mentoring and sharing process with students and young artists alike.
