Hello!
My name is Aino Saarikivi and I'm an illustrator, graphic designer and a visual designer from Helsinki, Finland, with almost 20 years of experience in print media.
I am working full-time at Viestimedia company as an Art Director for a print magazine Aarre. I have been working as a graphic designer for various magazines.
My greatest passion is illustration and I would love to find more time to just paint and draw. I'm always looking for illustration opportunities and I'm dreaming that I could illustrate more (many!) children's books.
Feel free to view my work and illustrations, and get in touch if you're looking for an illustrator or a designer. I'd love to work with you to create the perfect design solution for your project.
Let's work together!
I am open to work projects if you are looking for an illustrator, graphic designer, art director, print designer etc. fields in the design industry.
Just drop me a message!
Thank you!
