About
I'm Shannon, a freelance animator and illustrator travelling the world with one bag and a laptop.
My work is inspired by gaming, pop culture and childhood pastimes. I love working with bright colours, characters, and humour to create pieces packed with energy and playfulness.
Recent work can be found on my Instagram, while in-depth project case studies can be found on my Behance.
