Illustration ✏ Animation ✂ Edit ☁
Hi, I'm..
I'm Hanna Lea – a visual storyteller with a soft spot for silence.
I work at the intersection of movement, form, and emotion. My tools range from animated images to sculpted jewelry and hand-drawn illustration. The medium may change, but the focus stays the same: telling visual stories that feel.
My work explores intimacy, gentleness, and the invisible shifts in between. I create quiet stories,in motion, in objects, in stillness.
