About Natalie Russo

With over 15 years of experience as a Concept Artist in the games and animation industries my passion lies in crafting compelling visuals through concept art and illustration, helping bring stories and worlds to life. Most recently, I worked as a Lead Visual Development Artist at Steamroller Animation, where I provided artistic direction, mentored designers, and helped shape the visual identity of projects. Over the years, I’ve collaborated with major studios like Disney, 20th Television, IO Interactive, and Fantasy Flight Games, contributing to a wide range of video game and animated productions. As a concept artist, I’ve worked on character design, key art, environment design, and UI/UX for companies such as Rovio, WB Games, and Perfect World Entertainment. My work spans games, mobile titles, and animated productions. I take pride in my ability to balance creativity with production needs.
