Aatu Seppänen – Designer

Professional illustrator creating striking, memorable artwork that helps your book stand out on the shelf and online.

Overview

Hello, I'm Aatu. I'm a professional illustrator with over 10 years of experience. I have a versatile work history, creating illustrations in fields including video games, music, entertainment, health, and education. My experience and prowess allow me to be flexible with my style, but I specialize in highly detailed and dynamic digital paintings.

I believe that successful illustrations and designs are built on good communication with the client, understanding their needs, and working through efficient iterations. What matters is not only that the illustration is technically sound; it must also resonate with the client and convey their vision of their world on the canvas.

I'm efficient, determined, and adaptable, and I can provide work for a vast range of deadlines and budget. I look forward to working with you!
