About me
My name is Antonella Fortino Gatti, but I am also known as Gaia. I am an illustrator, visual artist, and concept artist with a focus on fantasy character design. Although I am still engaged in academic studies, I have been pursuing my interest in drawing for a considerable period of time. In 2016, I began to dedicate myself fully. I am currently pursuing a degree in video game design, having previously studied audiovisual design.My work is strongly influenced by medieval fantasy, with a focus on the use of vibrant colours, intricate textures and sparkles, which I bring to life primarily through digital illustration. In addition, I have experience with traditional mediums such as oil and acrylic painting, as well as ceramics. Participating in game jams has enabled me to gain valuable experience in storytelling and character creation, which I have applied in the development of several games.I am passionate about creating art that evokes a strong emotional response in my audience, whether that be joy, sadness, or a sense of wonder. My ultimate goal is to work with video game studios, both independent and AAA, to bring immersive and emotionally engaging experiences to international audiences.I am currently working as a freelance artist and concept artist at Horizon Interactive, and I am seeking additional opportunities in the video game industry.
