Joona Aalto
My name is Joona Aalto and I am an art director, illustrator, animator, and alternative pop culture enthusiast. My fascination lies in the interplay between bold colors, cute and ugly aesthetics, and the quirkiest of characters.
I have a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of the power of visual storytelling. My artistic practice is fueled by an insatiable appetite for experimentation, constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible with new techniques and approaches. Whether I'm crafting intricate illustrations or bringing charming characters to life through animation, my work is always infused with a sense of playfulness and an undeniable passion for the creative process.
