About me
My name is Xinru and I'm currently taking the a bachelor in Game and Interaction Design at The Royal Danish Academy. I'm a game artist and work primaly in concept art and illustration, partly in 3D modelling. In terms of the artistic expression and art style of the game, I have always been enthusiastic about learning, exploring and trying to break through myself. So I'm hoping to gain more knowledge and skills in other areas of visual development.
I see myself as a dedicated team player in work, and I draw quickly sketch in mind to actively communicate with team members. With strong observation and learning ability, I can quickly integrate into a team's art style. Collaborates well with others to generate and execute ideas within tight deadlines.
Now I work as a freelance illustrator for a children's book publisher. In my spare time, I make also clay statues.
