Hi! I’m Rowena (Reena). I’m a British-Irish illustrator and animator based in Bournemouth on the UK’s South Coast.

After graduating with a BSc in Psychology in 2014, I retrained as an artist and have worked in the animation, editorial and publishing industries ever since. My roots in psychology underpin my work with depth and I often am involved with projects that explore these subjects.

Clients include: Disney, TED-Ed, the MS Society, BBC, ITV, the BMJ, National Geographic and many more.

Outside of work, I love to hike, boulder and am currently studying biochemistry in my spare time 🧬. I’m a life-long learner, and I love to grow my understanding of how things work.

Want to work together? I can be reached by email at:

“It's an absolute pleasure having Rowena direct our animated shorts! Rowena navigates challenging productions with so much grace, rendering complex and sensitive subject-matters into captivating visual metaphors and breath taking illustrations”
