This illustration style was influenced by the crude graphics of early video games that I grew up playing. Within many demographics, it conjures up warm feelings of nostalgia. But it's also a clever way to talk about concepts like digital life, emerging technology and the gamification of things without the usual visual clichés.

I've worked with numerous companies to art direct and illustrate video games for both commercial sale and corporate promotion. Typography, illustration, animation, level design, and interface design are all part of the package I can bring to your next game project.

Whether you need a rad title screen for your retro-style video game, an opening spread for your next gaming article, or cool can art for a hip beer, pixel-style type can take your project to the next level!

Pixel-style portraits bring 8-bit nostalgia to your next project. It's also a clever way to talk about concepts like digitization and gamification without the usual clichés.
