Storytelling through playful design and animation
Hello! My name is Sooz Reilly – the human behind soozdraws.
I live in Glasgow *Scotland* and can usually be found collecting sticks with my small child and emotionally intense dog, Lily.
Design-led animator with a Marketing and E-learning background. Communicating messages for a wide range of clients for over 12 years. Passionate about stories and spreading empathy, as well as making cool and joyful art that people remember.
A lover of things hand-made, playful and human. I create colourful characters with a lot of warmth, charm and a wee bit of humour – to help tell your story or get your brand noticed.
Taking complex or emotional subjects and making accessible and engaging visuals – whether that’s through animation, brand illustrations, infographics – I can help you figure out the best format for your project needs. I'm experienced working directly with clients as well as with studios and agencies as a trusted creative freelancer.
If you'd like to collaborate or just chat about your potential project, say hello :)
