Sage background by Mike Erickson M. in Quezon City

Hey there! I'm a college student from the Philippines who's head over heels for art 🎨. It all began with those inspiring art classes that fueled my creative fire. I kicked things off with portraits using graphite, charcoal, and soft pastels – even drawing people and their adorable pets 🐶! Then, my love for gaming took me on a retro-style art adventure. Gaming has always been my jam 🎮, and that's where I fell in love with pixel art. Right now, I'm cooking up my very own game using pixel art! 😁 For the past three years, I've been lucky enough to team up with game developers, helping them bring their games to life with pixel art. 🌟 Art, to me, is all about the connections it creates, the emotions it stirs, and the magic it sparks. Every stroke, every pixel, brings joy to my heart and smiles to the faces of those who see my art. Can't wait to share more with you all! 🌟😄 You can find more of my artwork and stay updated with my creative journey on Instagram - mike.portraits
