Hello! I'm Vanessa Mendoza

A Venezuelan-Canadian who is currently working as a Layout Artist on an unreleased short film project, where I have developed both communication and leadership skills. ​As an optimistic person, I thrive in collaborative settings and continually seek opportunities for improvement while demonstrating perseverance.
While I initially set out to pursue 2D animation, I quickly fell in love with the world of backgrounds and layouts. My passion for animation began with Studio Ghibli films—their ability to capture emotion and beauty through background art continues to inspire me. I also enjoy studying films in general, as there's always something new to learn from the way stories are told visually. Beyond the big names, I’m constantly inspired by the small artists and animators around me; their creativity and dedication have played a huge role in my own artistic growth.

When I'm not drawing, you can find me painting with watercolours, watching horror movies, trying to play the bass guitar, and spending time with my dogs!​
