Hello! I am a Bafta award winning artist from Edinburgh, Scotland. 

Over the course of my 17 year career I have worked as an illustrator and concept artist for clients including Screen Burn Interactive (Silent Hill: Townfall), Wizards of the Coast (Magic: The Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons), Valve, Netflix and Games Workshop, and as Art Director at Axis Studios creating AAA cinematics for studios like Bungie (Destiny 2), Blizzard Entertainment (Heroes of the Storm), Riot Games (League of Legends), Skybound (The Walking Dead) and ArenaNet (Guild Wars 2).

I am currently developing my first game, a tabletop roleplaying game called Pale Tides.

I am lucky enough to have had my work featured in Spectrum Fantastic Art and a bunch of other great publications, and I was honoured to be featured in Develop's esteemed '30 Under 30' spotlight. I illustrated a Dark Souls book one time, and sometimes give talks/workshops at events including Industry Workshops, IFCC, THU Berlin and IAMAG.

I am super passionate about my work and always happy to chat - please feel free to drop me a line at the contact form below if you have any questions or would like to work with me, or you can use my email: paulscottcanavan@gmail.com.
