Robyn
Hello!
My name is Robyn and I am a freelance artist in the gaming industry from the United States.
I graduated from Savannah College of Art and Design at the top of my class with a degree in Illustration.
As an artist in the gaming industry, I have had the opportunity to work with major companies like Ubisoft, Aristocrat, and more using many of the skills taught in this course.
Even though I am drawing all day for work, I draw even more in my free time because I am absolutely addicted to improving my skills every day.
I have always loved realism and stylized realism ever since I started taking art seriously 9 years ago.
I love going overboard with details and playing around with colors and lighting. I get many questions about how I do what I do, so I am very excited to finally be able to share my knowledge here!
