Hello friends! :-)
My name is Liliia Ivolha and I am a 2D/3D Animator who has 3+ years of work experience in commercial animation in Canada (Ottawa).
As an Illustrator and a Graphic Designer throughout the 12 years, I have improved my skills in producing advertisements, corporate materials, illustrations, easel paintings, as well as drawings in Canada and Ukraine.
My more than two years of experience in teaching drawing of human figures, and a wide range of knowledge in creating illustrations, which I also was sharing with students at the National Academy of Arts, allows me to produce illustrations that range from anatomically realistic objects to simple sign forms. Also, I had a few solo exhibitions of my own artworks.
Nowadays, I am a mom of a wonderful daughter and I take an active part in public activities in the city of Ottawa.
If you like my artwork, do not hesitate to get in touch with me.
