Who me?
I’m Ana. Currently, I’m writing two graphic novels: “The Fifolay” set for publication in 2024 through Antenna Gallery, and “Gatorbird.”
My design approach aims to synthesize simplicity with hints of flair, mystery, and spice. In all my work, I believe there is a story to tell, and a vision to share. With a background in both media creation and analysis, I aim to create meaningful work that not only gets the job done, but inspires wonder, and allows us to feel more connected with the world around us. Being a part of something greater gives me the most satisfaction.
I love: espresso martinis, comics, indie film, cool colors, making animated shorts, and my chubby cat: Kitty Chef Meow Meow Meow!
I do not love: cockroaches…but let’s not talk about that.
