Yavae Sanae

Yavae is an illustrator and designer specializing in character design, visual development, and color styling in TV animation.

A Wisconsin native, Yavae grew up with blizzards, tornadoes, and cheese. And these things only excited her! She moved to a small town in Georgia called Powder Springs when she was 8 years old. Her interests and cultural background are evident in her exploration of diverse locations, people, and things. Yavae graduated from the Savannah College of Art in Design in August 2018 with a BFA in Animation.

​

She now spends her time creating silly characters and illustrations, dancing, and being a human butler for her kitten, Lazlo.
