ABOUT MEIllustrator
Hi! My name is Anoushka Russell but I also go by the handle 'Aria' online. I am a digital illustrator and primarily use Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop, but I also paint with watercolours and gouache in my free time. I have a particular love for fantasy, details and character design and my main inspirations include George Kamitani (of vanillaware fame), Nagi Ryou and Jill Barklem.
I have worked as Lead Artist for 'A More Beautiful World' (Afterthought Studios) producing character concept designs, sprites, CGs and promotional artwork. I have also contributed commercial artwork for the group ARM Circle, and illustrations and lyrics for harmonicblend. I regularly take commission work for a variety of clients both commercial and private. As well as art, I also earned an Undergraduate Degree with Honours in English Literature with a specialty in Old English translation, and I provide artistic mentorship, editing, and proofreading. |
