artist profile

Saintvi’s artistic journey began in Mrs. Arrington’s first-grade class, where her love for drawing was first recognized. While most kids were busy with typical classroom activities, Saintvi was already lost in a world of lines and imagination, doodling on the sides of her papers. It didn’t go unnoticed—Mrs. Arrington saw something special and got her The Cartoon Book Scholastic by James Kemsley, and said “You should try drawing cartoons.” Those simple words ignited a spark that would guide her creative path for years to come.

From that moment on, drawing became more than just a hobby—it was a calling. Despite teachers constantly reminding her parents that she needed to stop sketching on her tests and assignments, SAINTVI couldn’t help but bring her ideas to life on paper. Doodling was her way of making sense of the world, of taking the characters and stories in her head and giving them form.

Cartoons became her greatest inspiration, a shared love with her dad. Together, they would watch shows like *Hey Arnold!*, *Scooby-Doo*, and *Rugrats*, marveling at how these animated characters could resonate so deeply with people, shaping their childhoods and leaving lasting impressions. But it was *Aaahh!!! Real Monsters* that truly captured her imagination. The show’s quirky, unconventional characters—a stick with big lips, the pit of an arm—showed her that anything could be brought to life with creativity. It wasn’t just about making drawings move; it was about infusing them with personality, giving life to the unexpected, and connecting with others through that shared experience.

As Saintvi’s life took her from Ipswich, Suffolk, across the U.S., and finally to Los Angeles in 2023, her art evolved, shaped by the diversity and contrasts of the places she lived. The UK’s sense of tradition, combined with the US’s focus on individualism and innovation, taught her adaptability and resilience—qualities that she infused into her creative process.
