Amy Tibbles

I'm a freelance illustrator and 2D animator based in London. Over the past eight years I've collaborated with animation studios, design studios and creative teams, supporting projects from early concepts and pitch work through to illustration, design and final animation. Whether it's developing visual ideas, creating styleframes, designing assets or bringing illustrations to life through motion, I'm used to working collaboratively to help tell engaging visual stories.

Illustration sits at the heart of my practice, with a particular interest in character-led storytelling, educational content and nature-inspired work. While my portfolio reflects my own illustrative style, I'm very comfortable adapting my approach to suit different creative briefs and established visual styles, producing clean, well-organised artwork that fits seamlessly into an existing pipeline.

Full-time contract working on fast-paced projects with tight deadlines, mostly producing 2D animated explainer videos for corporate tech companies, making me a vital member of the animation team.

Studio and creative assistant at Kelly Anna and Art of Ping Pong (2018-01 – 2019-12)

Versatile roles that involved researching for projects, drawing, and designing artwork. These roles kept me out of my comfort zone and constantly learning new skills.
