Artist's Statement:
I wanted to focus a simple story that would bring life to two characters that live in in a beautiful world with a hint of magic. My passion is exploring different backgrounds and layouts, and this is combined with my style that embraces the magical and cute. I have always been inspired by Japanese style animation, especially with their vivid colors and complex backgrounds, which can be seen in this animated film short. My love for animation and storytelling brings the film together as a whole.
