About

I’m Patrick Barron, an experienced illustrator, game artist, and animator specializing in game asset design, background design, and asset animation. I focus on strong composition, form, space, and color theory to create engaging visuals, and I take pride in detailed, on-time production that fits project requirements.

Throughout my career, I’ve supported multiple studio and entertainment teams by designing and animating high-quality assets—especially casino-style game elements like symbols, reels, backgrounds, effects, and UI—as well as building character poses, expressions, and rigs for professional animation. I’m also passionate about mentorship, constructive feedback, and continuous learning, and I’ve contributed to both game production and creative marketing support for entertainment titles.
