She is a young designer, illustrator and form-maker who recently graduated from CalArts BFA graphic design program and we’re proud to tell you she is available for free-lance work! I particularly love her combination of colors, her different styles of illustration and the work she did with type creation. So, have a look, there’s also some great layout for motion design and some experiment stuff. I think it is interesting to discover young (but mature) portfolios among those renowned artists…
