I also work as a medical illustrator and scientific illustrator; I create infographics and children's book illustrations. As a 2D animator, I can create various types of animations, such as hand-drawn Whiteboard animation, Motion Design, Motion Graphics, GIFs, Lottie, freehand-drawn cel animation (frame-by-frame), and PSA-style animation. I combine the skills of an illustrator and an animator, which allows me to produce consistent-style art and videos. My workflow is simple and clear: 🔸BRIEFING Gathering information about the project. As a digital artist, I ensure the visual approach aligns with your goals. All visuals — 2D illustrations, sketches, storyboards, digital art, GIFs, cel animation, Lottie animation, motion graphics, hand-drawn whiteboard animation, line art (line drawing)— are created by hand. As a 2D animator, I draw and animate everything manually using: Adobe Illustrator Adobe Photoshop After Effects Adobe Audition Adobe Premiere Pro (for video editing). 🔸STYLE and FIRST DRAFT As a skilled artist, I prepare the first sketch to define the style. You can choose between freehand digital style illustrations (freestyle drawing) or vector illustrations. As well as type and format of 2D animation (🔹Whiteboard animation 🔹Motion Graphics, Motion Design 🔹Frame-by-Frame animation, Cel-animation 🔹GIF animation 🔹Lottie animation 🔹RSA-style animation) My experience as a 2D animator allows me to adapt any idea to a smooth visual flow. Possible style choices for digital illustrations and 2D animations include: COLOR PALETTE 🔹 Black and white; Limited; Colorful COMPLEXITY 🔹Minimalist, Medium-detail, or Complex illustrations ART STYLES: 🔹Cartoon art | Cartoon style 🔹Realistic | hand-drawn 🔹Pixel-perfect vector art SPECIFIC ILLUSTRATION STYLE: 🔹Line-art (usually black-and-white pictures)— including one-line drawings simple minimalist drawings hand-drawn style sketchy style cartoon style comic style and pixel-perfect style, among others. You can use these drawings for book illustrations, explainer videos, and 2D animations. As well as for hand-drawn infographics, presentations, posters, coloring pages, explainer videos, educational videos, doodle videos, children's book illustrations, and storyboarding. 🔹Vector Illustration. Graphic Design—smooth lines, scalable graphics, perfect for icons, cartoon art, UX/UI visuals, posters, infographics, illustrations, and 2D animations (including GIF animations and Lottie animations). 🔹Watercolor style and Realistic digital painting—created in Photoshop—fits for game art, books, medical illustrations, and high-detail 2D illustrations and 2D animations 🔹Traditional drawing and painting with digital polishing. 🔸ILLUSTRATION & ANIMATION PRODUCTION Once the style is defined, I start preparing digital art (2D illustrations). For 2D animation, I create a storyboard. As a 2D animator, I work on composition, smooth transitions, and clear storytelling. Hand-drawn whiteboard animation and RSA-style animation often include a step-by-step drawing effect, which I craft manually. 🔸FINAL DELIVERY You receive polished 2D illustrations or 2D animations (including video editing, if any).
