[Hella Artsy - Ep 005 - The Eye Behind the Work: Tina Hernandez on Creativity, Collaboration, and Capture]

Tina Hernandez has always seen the world a little differently.

Growing up, that creative instinct wasn't just a hobby -- it was a lens. A way of processing, observing, and making sense of everything around her. Now, as a designer, illustrator, filmmaker, and photographer, that same instinct drives everything she creates.

In this episode, we sit down with Tina to talk about where it all started, how her upbringing shaped the way she thinks creatively, and how she's carried that foundation into her work today. We get into how she approaches collaboration, what it looks like when she brings her perspective into someone else's vision, and the quiet practice she keeps of capturing the world as she moves through it.

This one's for every creative who learned early that they saw things differently -- and figured out how to make that a superpower.
