About Mariana

Every project is a story waiting to be told. I'm Mariana, and I tell them with design, illustration, and animation. Handmade, without AI, and with real feeling.

Graphic Design
Print and digital design: flyers, posters, wedding invitations, presentations.
Always with a clear visual concept and a story behind it.

Branding & Visual Identity
Logo, color and typography system, style guide.
For companies that want to build a coherent and distinctive identity.

Illustration & Digital Art
Character design, editorial illustration, hand-drawn digital graphics.
Developed in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and Fresco.

2D Animation & Motion Graphics
Concept, storyboard, character animation, explainer videos, motion graphics, and video composition.
From idea to finished video.
Tools: Adobe Animate, After Effects, Premiere Pro, and Audition.

Creative Consulting & Custom Solutions
Sometimes you know something is missing – but not exactly what.
I listen, think along, and figure out with you what your project truly needs.
Whether it's brand consistency, creative direction, or just honest feedback: I'm in.

And if you simply want to manage your social media channels independently and easily (without complicated software), I'll create personalized, editable templates for you in Canva or PowerPoint, with a brief introduction so you can really get to work.
