Meet the Artist
Avani Hope is an illustrator and concept artist raised on Florida’s sunny Atlantic coast. As far back as she can remember, she has always been happiest when creating art. Growing up so close to the sea, her family often volunteered with ocean conservation teams and wildlife rescue efforts. These early experiences instilled in her a deep love and respect for the Earth and all its creatures. She is a proud graduate of Ringling College of Art and Design, with a degree in Illustration and a minor in art history. Although Avani works primarily as a character designer and narrative illustrator, she has always found immense beauty in the designs of nature. She often finds herself looking towards the natural world as a source of inspiration. She is currently pursuing a master’s in art conservation and is furthering her artistic studies through her additional course work in print making, fiber arts, and sculpture. She works full time as a freelance artist with a wide variety of work in visual development, graphic design, and fine art.
