about Denise

Hello! 👋 I’m an artist with over a decade of experience in animation and video game art, direction, and production. I enjoy utilizing my creative talents and collaborating with others to craft compelling visual stories and impactful experiences.

Most recently, I was a Lead Artist at Storm8, where I created concept art for three home design mobile games (The Property Brothers, Home Design, and Ellen’s Garden Restoration), managed freelance artists, provided design direction and feedback, and collaborated across departments to deliver engaging and high quality player experiences.

Prior to that, I was an Art Director on the Cyanide and Happiness: Freakpocalypse video game, and a Background Artist on several animated series including explosm’s The Stockholms and The Cyanide and Happiness Show, Cartoon Network’s Craig of the Creek, truTV’s Adam Ruins Everything, and Cartuna’s Human Kind Of.

I specialize in environment design, background design and paint, concept art, and illustration, but I’m always looking for opportunities to grow and explore!

For all inquiries, including an extended portfolio of my work, you can reach me at [email protected].

Let’s work together!
