Hello There!

​

I am a Background Painter for 2D animated shows, currently working as an art teacher in Whittier, California. I have worked on short films such as Northern Star, and recently I have been working on commission work, as well as my own passion project, Star Holder.

​

I graduated from California State of Long Beach with a BFA in Pre Production and Illustration in 2020. I enjoy working with a team that is passionate about stories and is motivated to use their talents. 

​

When I'm not doing work, I am tending to my many houseplants, going to the beach, or on small trips with friends, family, and my dog. 

​

If you are looking for an illustrator, background painter, or visual development artist, I'd love to know about your project and get in touch. I work best in 2D, but I am more than willing and excited to learn new material. 

​

I am available for work, whether commissions or freelance! Feel free to contact me at: miranda.grijalva135@gmail.com
