Available to hire
Hello! I’m Matthew Pongsudhiraksa, a concept artist focusing on 2D rough sketches and character design. I also dabble in sound design and have created music for personal projects and team collaborations.
Art and sound are what grab players’ attention when diving into a new game, and my goal is to improve existing skills and inspire others along the way. I enjoy collaborating across disciplines to craft cohesive visuals and audio.
