Hi, I’m Lia M. Hilde—an emerging artist and designer with a strong interest in visual storytelling, zine design, and museum outreach. I enjoy blending traditional drawing with digital painting to create expressive characters and immersive environments, and I’m excited by opportunities to design for exhibitions and educational programming. My early work includes writing museum labels for temporary art exhibits and contributing graphic design to zines, along with organizing events and guiding visitors at cultural institutions. I’m currently expanding my skills through a Cleveland Institute of Art Pre-College Digital Painting program and active involvement with art clubs and NAHS. I value collaboration, community impact, and life-long learning, and I’m eager to continue developing my portfolio, exploring new media, and bringing thoughtful visuals to shared projects.
