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.

Miracle of Morning

Studio Buck
Role storyboard, animation


This short was made in collaboration with the Obamas and Netflix, and is the final episode in a Schoolhouse Rock-inspired musical anthology series entitled “We The People”.





‘A Miracle of Morning’ is a beautiful acknowledgement of today’s uncertainty.

Based on a poem by Amanda Gorman, this short story follows her point of view, brining focus to the world and community she is describing. Rather than wallowing in cynicism or despair, it focuses us towards an optimistic path forward.
