About Anna Rother

tl;dr: illustration!// motion graphics, graphic design // likes dogs Although Anna is able to use a wide variety of illustration approaches, she enjoys above all her own style: quick drawings with more than just a nice picture behind. She loves wordplay, ambiguity and making mistakes. Her motto:"a straight line has little value if it doesn't say anything". Anna likes to play with colours, yet she always enjoys to return to good old black and white illustration. After studying design, she worked as an art director in the advertising industry for a few years, but she increasingly felt the urge to pick up the drawing pencil and delve into illustration. She has now been working as an illustrator for almost seven years, combining her knowledge of graphic design and art direction with her illustrations. For some time now, she has also enjoyed incorporating movement into her drawings, which makes her work particularly interdisciplinary and gives her even more toys to play with. Her most important demand on her works is to entertain the viewers and, above all, herself;) Recently, Anna has embarked on a new creative journey, joining Playing History, a studio focused on creating Serious Games, as a part-time graphic/UI designer, allowing her to further explore her passion for visual storytelling and design aesthetics within an interactive context. Through this position, Anna continues to blur the lines between illustration, graphic design, and interactive media, always seeking new ways to engage and inspire her audience.
