Hello! My name is Blythe Nellessen. Currently, I work as a Lead Game Artist, creating illustrations and animations for slot games, while also designing game logic and supporting a team of artists. Outside of work, I enjoy participating in various local art shows and conventions, my main focus being illustration.
​
My interests in animated media, music, animals, and plants influence my subject matter and style. I usually create my work digitally, but I love to work traditionally with ink, pencils, and watercolor. Occasionally I'll even get my hands messy and work with ceramics!
​
In my free time, you can find me tending my little indoor garden of plants, listening to unhealthy amounts of K-pop, and collecting toys. I’m a homebody at heart, and I love spending time with my corgi, cat, and a good cup of coffee.
