Arina Chakyr ★ Design and Animation Portfolio на Mediiia

Проект принимает участие в конкурсе

Hey there! My name is Arina, and I’m a 2D animator and illustrator (and a bit of a designer, too).

I love unconventional stories, the mystery and magic of nature, rich textures, and combining things that don’t seem to belong together. I look for the strange in the ordinary.

What Do I Create?
