About Amanita

I am an Illustrator, designer and 2D animator from Slovenia, working under the name Amanita, while my real name is Kaja Čevnik.
Working mainly in the digital arts field, I still have a passion for traditional mediums like acrylics on canvas and pencil illustrations. My childhood love of cartoons shaped my work, inspiring a passion for 2D animation and stylised characters.
