I’m a 2D Game Artist, UI Artist, and Animator focused on creating game-ready visuals for indie and mid-scale game projects. I work on a wide range of 2D game content, including environments, props, game assets, and user interfaces. I frequently work with pixel art and stylized visuals, making sure everything is clean, readable, and optimized for in-game use. My workflow is structured and production-oriented. I pay close attention to visual clarity, consistency, and how assets function inside the game, not just how they look in isolation. I’m comfortable collaborating with developers and adapting to existing art directions or building one from scratch. What I can help you with: - 2D Game Art & Pixel Art - Game Assets, Environments, and Props - Game UI / HUD Design - Sprite Animation and Simple 2D Animations Clear communication and reliability are important to me. I aim to deliver well-organized, polished work that fits seamlessly into your project pipeline.
