Hi, I'm May Yeoshen. I'm a Venezuelan/Canadian artist with over 10 years of experience in the animation industry. I have worked in the background painting and character design departments, and my past clients include Disney Television, Netflix, Nickelodeon, Mattel and 9 Story.
I am currently working on my own picture book, and I am open for remote work.
