JoJo Kanare is the face behind Kauzuno, a midwest-east coast artist dedicated to creating fluid, lively animations with color-popping and memorable character designs.
Graduated in 2026 from Ball State University with a BFA in Animation Production, I specialize in a unique 90s-inspired sketchy style with a focus on posing, movement, and eye-catching colors to bring my artwork to life!
While most of my work is digital 2D animation or character sheets, I dabble in storyboarding, traditional ink and paint, photography, and experimental animated works as well.
Interested in any of my work or got any questions for me? Feel free to shoot me a message!
