Viola OZ is a 2D animation student based in Melbourne, currently studying at Collarts. Originally from Argentina, she brings a blend of traditional art sensibilities into her digital work, thanks to her background in Fine Arts.

Her main focus is visual development, especially character and prop design, though she has recently begun exploring animation, and is loving the process of -finally- bringing her drawings to life. Viola is passionate about crafting expressive, story-driven artwork that gives fictional worlds and personalities depth and emotion.

Her inspirations include animated series, literature, and the beauty of the everyday—from ornate architecture to the way shadows fall at golden hour.

When she’s not drawing, you’ll find her journaling, weightlifting, or planning her next creative endeavour...
