Hello, my name is Claudia Short. I am a freelance Concept Artist and Illustrator who specialises in 2D stylised art that is flat with minimal lines and has a heavy focus on shape; I intend to transfer this style into creating concept art for games.
I bring a love for folklore and research into my art by creating and selling illustrations inspired by folktale creatures and adding details to my character designs that reference cultural folk traditions and clothing.
I'm interested in stepping into the games industry with this love as a concept artist and create games that are charming and wholesome.
Let's Work Together

As my Masters delved further into Folktales it developed into deconstructing the importance of research when crafting concept art for games that explore Folktale themes; I used this as influence for creating a concept art book for a video game based on an unknown Folktale.
For any interest in my research please feel free to view my blog dedicated to my Masters work:

Stargazer of the Shattered Earth was my first hands on project into concept art through my Game Art BA, starting with character design I dipped into the many aspects of concepting in-game items, environments, creatures and a world around an idea.
