Hello! My name is Imogyn, a Black-British illustrator and character artist from the UK. I’m largely a self taught artist with a degree in Architecture from Birmingham City University and am currently working as a Freelance Illustrator, Represented byINKYVERSE MEDIA GROUP. I took a huge interest in drawing and art at a very young age upon my introduction to Dragonball Zat the age of 7. This led me to watching other anime shows such as; Pokemon,Yu-gi-oh and Cardcaptor Sakura just to name a few. From that point onwards, I became heavily fascinated with anime as a stylistic medium especially when it came to drawing people and I immediately tried to incorporate the style into all of my drawings going forward, and I have been trying to perfect that ever since.
This introduction is what developed my love for character design and portraiture. I would love to work on character design and development for animated films or video games. My ultimate goal is to create large and colourful splash screen illustrations for video game development studios, such as; Toys For Bob, Insomniac Games, Activision Blizzard and Riot Games.
