About Me

Peter Tien (they/them)
Based in Nottingham, UK​
I am a UK based animation graduate and freelance illustrator with a passion for creating endearing characters and animation!
​​​
I am always looking to learn and hone my skills in my personal projects during free time to become an animator and creative within the industry, whether it be commercial or otherwise.
When I'm not animating, I am an avid comic-book reader and fan. My personal works include making my own original characters and backstories, where online research for these ideas influence my own creative endeavors. Currently, I'm into weapons, visual effect designs, and composition in films.
