My name is Megan McCarthy and I am a concept artist with a bias for environmental and character concept art.

Some relevant projects I’ve taken part in are:

A studio experience where I participated as a concept artist and a partial 2d asset producer in a small group. (OddBug)

Multiple games jams and a longer year 2 group project where I was mainly a character concept artist.

My personal final project of year 3 was inspired by Irish mythology, specifically the faerie folk and the folklore and religion surrounding them and their origins. I expressed this through environmental designs and some accompanying species designs.

Throughout my second and third years I have been volunteering in my community for Age UK Norfolk which has helped me with soft social skills. I have also taken on a few commissions over my time at uni, including digital and traditional art. My degree may be for digital games concept art, but I have kept up my passion for oil painting.
