Stylized Character Illustration: From Reference to Drawing

Tasia MS is a freelance illustrator and character designer based in Johannesburg, South Africa. She is a self-taught artist who’s love for drawing comes from a young age, when she would sketch the models from the pages of her mother’s fashion books.

While studying 3D and 2D design, she noticed that the illustrations she had created in her free time were getting a lot of attention on social media and getting her jobs. It was then that she realized her true passion was character design and opted to go at it full-time. She has since worked with large studios such as DC Comics, Mubi, Clip Studio Paint, 3DTotal, WarnerMedia, and HBO. She has also designed book covers and comic covers.
