One of the wonderful things about working in animation is getting to work alongside incredibly talented artists 💚

If you’re in Helsinki this weekend, there’s still time to visit When I Feel Small, an exhibition by Gigglebug Art Director Sarah Carvalho Guedes at Kaisaniemi Botanic Garden 🌿

Through coloured-pencil illustrations and nature-inspired artwork, the exhibition explores growth, hope and the strength that can be found in small beginnings 💫

Open until this Sunday.
