JOANNA STOPYRA
2D Artist and Animator
About Me
Hello, there! My legal name is Joanna but friends call me Asia ( pronounced AH-shah). Born in Poland and currently live in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am a 2D Artist and Animator with six years of experience working on innovative educational games for children aged 3-12.
I designed art and animated characters for over 12 launched products.
​
When not creating, I'm finding four-leaf clovers, looking for mushrooms while hiking, and playing with my daughter.
