About Me

Hey there, I'm Valerina, a Digital Illustrator, Comic Artist, and 2D animator from Malaysia! I've had hands-on experience with different studios like SCA and Siung Films, where I honed my skills as a 2D Animator and Art Designer. Now, I'm freelancing!

I'm pretty handy with software like Adobe Animate, Toon Boom Harmony, and others for animation, and Adobe Illustrator, Clip Studio Paint, and Photoshop for illustration. I've even dabbled in designing stickers and notebooks for my personal store on Ko-fi and Shopee.

I'm up for being a webcomic assistant – anything from line art to being the main artist for a Webtoon. Plus, I've been working on educational comics for a Singaporean magazine. If you need cute stickers or stationery designs, I'm your person!

Here's what I bring to the table:

- I've done animation work for kids, illustrated books and magazines, and even designed book covers.
- I'm experienced in storyboarding, motion graphics, video editing, and collaborating with webtoon authors.
- I've got a flexible style that suits different project needs.
- I'm quick without compromising quality, and I value good communication with clients to nail down exactly what they want.

I'm excited to bring my skills and creativity to your projects!
