Whilst she studied motion design and worked as a graphic designer, she always secretly dreamed of becoming a full-time illustrator. Frieda draws whenever she can and carries her sketchbook everywhere. She loves working with bold colours in the hopes that her bright designs make grey days more colourful. These joyful creations have been used across editorial, publishing and packaging projects. When she's not working, she likes reading, playing board games, being in nature and spending time with family and friends. |
