“A Sweet Winter Break” digital illustration GIF (shown above) by Christine “Tin” Raganit (IDEA Grad 2025 Cohort 1).

“One of my favourite parts of this semester was making a gif in Shayne Letain’s Digital Illustration class so I was excited to make another one. Now it’s time to enjoy a break filled with Christmas cheer, sweet treats, and no deadlines! Happy holidays!”
