Bio:
I'm Ryan Alexander Lee, a passionate illustrator and concept artist with a sturdy foundation in traditional art mediums and years of experience bringing imaginative worlds to life. Trained across a wide variety of 2D tool sets like Photoshop, Clip Studio, Procreate and more - I also can bring the qualities of traditional mediums into my digital work thanks to my experience with pencil, ink, charcoal, oil painting, sculpture, and more. I excel at rapidly iterating and communicating ideas through dynamic visuals and strong compositions - whether crafting character illustrations, creatures, props, or environments.
My career began at a San Francisco Concept Art House, collaborating with top-tier talent to create concept, production, and polish artwork for renowned game studios like Disney, Square-Enix, and Ubisoft. At Riot Games, I currently help guide Art Outsourcing for VALORANT, partnering with global teams to deliver vibrant, player-focused assets while continuing to hone my craft in visual storytelling and world-building.
