Hi, I’m Ni Ma.

I’m an illustrator, motion designer, and art educator based in Savannah, Georgia—the person behind Manimation Studio.

I turn everyday observations into colorful illustrations, expressive characters, and playful worlds in motion. My work combines painterly textures with small details that reward a closer look, from food illustrations to animated visual stories.

My sketchbook is where I explore people, places, and passing moments through life drawing and on-location sketches.

Outside the studio, I’m a dog person and cat mom, always collecting little things to draw.
