Hello! 👋


I’m Thea, with over a decade of industry experience I have had the pleasure of collaborating with diverse studios and clients globally, including having worked full-time with the talented team at Buck in New York for over 4+ years.

My passion lies within creating bold, minimal, yet expressive illustrations and animations that explore themes of human connection, touch, and quiet moments. I enjoy blending soft surrealist human forms with delicate linework to craft pieces that feel both intimate and evocative.


Available for commissions and collaborations.

Mabel FT Shygirl “Look At My Body Pt. II”

Studio Buck
Role Concept, design

BUCK had the pleasure of collaborating with director David Wilson to create the music video for music artist Mabel.  




Our vision of mighty Mother Nature celebrates her anatomy without objectifying it — challenging the male gaze and historic sexual objectification of women.

The result is a 2D-animated sequence that combines feminist values with classic craft — a psychedelic romp showcasing the power of womanhood in a sequence that is fluid and dynamic.
