A little about me
Louise Haywood is a freelance storyboard artist, illustrator and Toon Boom Harmony Specialist who has created art for a number of published children's books and has experience on multiple animated productions based in London, England.
I have experience illustrating children's books and promotional material, creating storyboards and designs for companies and production, creating small loop animations and so much more. I have worked for Aardman animations, Nickelodeon, Universal Kids and Cloudcastle, as well as creating several of my own short films and hoping to expand to games in the future!
I love to work using the Adobe Suite and Toon Boom Harmony and work both traditionally and digitally. My style of working is very hands on, I ask a lot of questions and send a lot of sketches! I can work in a variety of art styles.
I have also done some work on TV and film as an extra or background artist on a few projects. I am really interested in learning all I can about film but my heart lies in traditional animation, especially the 1960's era of Disney, such as 101 Dalmatians as well as the early Warner Bros animation.
Drawing from life and nature is a must for me. I am part of a local gardening community to help grow food in other peoples gardens and teach others about the importance of connecting with nature.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me I look forward to getting to know you too!
