My name is Ronald Acosta, I’m an artist/illustrator from the Bay Area California, currently based in New England. As of 2025, I’ve about 8 years experience working with independent developers/publishers, startups and writers. For the past six years I’ve been the artist on The Adventures of Starman series, a graphic novel sci-fi universe blended with real life events, as well as The Tales of Treydora, a fantasy based comic book series; Both of which are building platforms for Art, Comics and Games in web3 and the metaverse space. My style of art can range from realistic to highly stylized/cartoonish, so I can easily adapt to whatever the project requires. I have experience in cinematic storytelling, storyboarding, sequential-comic book art, character design, promotional art and all around illustration in general. I work in both traditional mediums and digitally via Procreate and Photoshop. I pull heavy inspiration from video game art, anime, and comic book artists like Frank Miller, Jim Lee and Barry Windsor Smith. Feel free to browse through my profile here with the various pieces from my portfolio. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Thank you for the consideration!
