Hi Iโ€™m Marie ๐Ÿ‘‹

Iโ€™ve always loved drawing, spending hours sketching characters in my room. That passion led me to win Danish national drawing championships at a young age and eventually sparked my career in animation and illustration.

Today, Iโ€™m a visual storyteller with a background in film, television, and street art. My education in animation and design gives me a unique mix of technical skill and creativity. Whether animating, illustrating, or painting murals, I strive to create stories and characters that resonate and bring ideas to life.
