Hey, I’m Yuliya.
I am a Ukrainian-American artist, illustrator, and motion designer.
Currently, I am a Lead Designer at Meta’s Creative Services team and a freelancer.
I got my start at the State Theater and Arts College of Dnipro, Ukraine, majoring in Graphic Design and Fine Arts.
Later, I earned a BFA in Animation from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
Clients:
My work encompasses commercial and editorial illustration, design for animation, storyboarding, cel, and 2D animation, as well as painting.
In my visual style, I use a mix of minimalist and cubist aesthetics with expressive character work and organic animation.
Some of the clients I worked with are Meta, Masterclass, and CVS Health among others.
I am always happy to hear about new projects, so if you have something in mind, drop me a line at yuliyaosyka@gmail.com or via the form below.
