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.
