Character, Visual Development, & Story Artist

Hi hi! I’m Atsu, I specialize in illustration, concept art, and design!In my works, I like to explore themes related to mythology, fantasy, and sci-fi, which are usually accompanied by a celestial motif.
I hope to spread stories filled with quirky characters and create fantastical landscapes which people can immerse themselves in.
I take inspiration from the visual style of anime and manga, western storytelling, as well as video game art.

Projects

Music's Memories

Music's Memories is my senior film. I worked on it for over six months. During the process I focused more on narrative and less so on smooth animation. I wanted to tell a good story and create a feeling rather than dwell in complex movement.

Nexus: Gifts & Gods

Nexus started out as a book, then a comic, and finally an audio drama. This is my longest ongoing project. See series bible below for more details.

Celestial Cause

Celestial Cause is a work-in-progress light novel that throws the reader into a high-fantasy, DND-inspired story. It's complete with cults, a prophecy, a party of unlikely allies, and of course dragons!
