Hi!

I'm a 2D artist specialized in video game artwork. I've worked in the industry for the last 13 years as the co-owner of Snails Animation and have experience in all the artistic aspects of the game, which means I can do everything from character design, animation, backgrounds, illustration, game logo design, UI and marketing assets like icons/thumbnails and banners. I did art for 50+ games released on different platforms and of many genres including RPG, arcade, puzzle, action, shooter, skill, memory, platform, casual and dress-up.

Specialties:

• Everything that is colorful and cute!

• "Organic" stuff like animals and natural environments

• Cel shade, vector art

• Frame by frame animation

I usually like to draw my assets in Adobe Flash but I'm used to working in Photoshop and Gimp as well. I have a bit of experience with Unity and Cocos Creator and have basic programming skills (C#, Actionscript, Javascript) in case needed for some animations.

Languages: French (native) and English. I feel more comfortable with written conversations.

I can also do English-French translations which can be useful for localizations and I'm already familiar with gaming terms.

Aside from video game art, I think because of my bright style I could be a good candidate to illustrate a children's book.
