Polina Tsymbal is an Adelaide-based artist who’s passion lies in digital illustration and animation. As of 2019, Tsymbal was lucky enough to gain recognition from the industry she so passionately puts her work into, and was accepted into the Illustrators Australia (IA) association, and that same year, achieved the IA Member’s Prize at the annual exhibition show hosted in Melbourne. These were defining events in Polina’s illustrating career, as she was finally receiving national recognition in this industry that truly gave her purpose, and it gave her the confidence she needed to really pursue illustration as a full-time job.
