Hi, I’m Alana Fairman, a concept artist and illustrator focused on immersive environments and architectural design for games. I love collaborating with art directors, developers, and designers to turn sketches into fully rendered worlds, with attention to lighting, perspective, and material storytelling. My background in costume design and game production helps me stay adaptable in fast-paced studios, and I enjoy exploring ideas in Blender and using Photoshop to bring ideas to life. I have the Global Seal of Biliteracy in Spanish and thrive in diverse, collaborative environments. I’m always learning new techniques to broaden my creative toolkit and contribute to teams with enthusiasm, reliability, and a collaborative mindset.
