Kat Baranyai | Hungary | freelancer digital illustrator and commission artist
I'm a digital artist who loves to create illustrations of beautiful women and magical creatures. I love to mix dark and bright themes, and incorporate my pieces with bright, striking colors and shimmer. You can find fantastical, whimsical, naturalistic and dark elements in my work.
I like to think that the best way to describe my art is like how I paint hair: messy, chaotic, but flowy and ethereal.
For as long as I can remember, I was always drawing. From copying anime girls from magazines and bubble gum stickers, to recreating video games on paper to enjoy in an offline space in my early life. I was collecting any kind of art I found, my youth was full of inspirations and big dreams of becoming a fashion designer, and later a tattoo artist.
These aspirations later changed, when I bought my first digital tablet at the age of 16. The world opened a new window to me. I started my digital career with editing my own pictures, drawing all kinds of creatures and characters. Later came my love for World of Warcraft, and I started drawing characters from Azeroth.
I started taking art seriously when I was 21. I wanted to become a freelance artist, so I started drawing daily. Every day, I drew *something*, that reinforced my will to improve and be able to create artworks. Being self-taught that had no prior education in the creative world is hard, but my dream come true at the age of 28 - I became a full time freelancer artist.
I mainly do commission work - I create fantasy and semi-realistic illustrations, character designs for my clients and work with them to achieve the best results possible. I also do character designing in a form of adoptables - pre-made designs that can be used for various things such as vtuber designs, ttrpg characters or assets for visual novels.
