Naomi Romero
Illustrator Columbus, OH
Hi! I am a freelance illustrator who loves to use shapes, color, and texture in my work.
I have created the popular Anxiety Fox character, which sold over 1000 of the "It Will Be Okay" pins. This character helps brings awareness to anxiety order, an illness that I have to face every day. In addition, the plush has been funded via Kickstarter, finishing at $55,000. Anxiety Fox is currently being sold at the famous Gallery Nucleus and apparel at WeLoveFine.
I am always up for new freelance projects, including full time work. Relocation can be considered
