TINA ALFREDSEN

Tina Alfredsen is an artist who works for an animation/game studio and also draws on comission via the internet. She creates a huge variety including paintings, animations, comics and pixel art. Alfredsen has a very distinctive "cute" style of drawing".

She has a great understanding of colour theory, so her pieces are always attractive and pleasant to look at.

My favourite thing about Alfredsen's work is her use of facial expression which makes her characters look fun and cartoon-y.

Of the many small animations she makes, I chose to feature this longer animation as it is a great example of her knowledge of movement and use of character design with expressive faces and motion.
In response to Alfredsen's work I have decided to make a comic that emulates her cute style and use of facial expression, but I am going to keep within my theme of dark story telling. I think the juxtaposition of cute drawings with a creepy story line will be interesting to experiment with.
