In my early years on League, before becoming an art lead on Champions, I set my foundations with the Splash Art team creating illustrations which showcase the characters, for use both in and out of the game client. I look back on these times fondly. Myself and a small team of peers learned how to be proper illustrators together, on the job, constantly pushing each other past our limits. We set the course for the style that would become a staple of the game. It was a simpler time in a lot of ways, and I'll be forever grateful for that team and the opportunity I was given to build my chops as a digital painter.
