Animal house Say hello to the furry colleagues and tactile inspirations that inhabit the Nickelodeon visual development artist’s studio space

Funnily enough, this room used to be our pets’ room, for the usage of our two cats and one rabbit. During shared an office. We’d sit back-toback, all the while conducting ourselves professionally in each of our productions

My prized Glorious Gaming mechanical keyboard that my friend Rocky built for me, alongside my programmable macro keyboard my friend Kevin helped me build for my daily Photoshop usage. The programmable keyboard has quickened my workflow and with my small hands, has made it easier for me to use.

. It was tough, and we needed to have our own spaces to think, feel, and to be inspired. I moved out of the office and repainted and redecorated the pets’ room to be what it is today. Winnie, our nine-year-old rabbit, is with me in the office, and she is a daily source of calm and centring of energy. Often, my mornings begin with cuddling the two cats, Herbie and Odin, and Winnie the rabbit. Starting the day off the tone for me, even if I know a  huge deadline is looming over the day. Chatting with my husband about our intents for the day, and sharing fun music and videos that make us laugh is also crucial to getting going. After grabbing my hot water and coffee, I begin writing down my list of tasks to do for the day. I don’t find I’m like most artists; I’m analytical and not as fantastically creative in my process.
