Conrad Roset \u2013 Video game design<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We already mentioned Conrad Roset in the post \u201cFour Artists to Watch in 2017\u201d<\/a> but this year, we\u2019re moving him into a new category. After having positioned himself as a benchmark illustrator in recent years, today we shine the spotlight on him as the co-founder and creative director of Nomada Studio<\/em>, a Barcelona-based studio where he combines his passion (illustration) with his main hobby (video games). After throwing himself into a new discipline, within a short time, this artist developed, together with his two partners, what would turn into the best video game of the year, and also the most prize-winning at the recent Gamelab 2019<\/em><\/a> National Video Game Awards<\/em>: GRIS<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In keeping with the saying \u201ca picture is worth a thousand words,\u201d GRIS eschews verbal language and focuses on reflecting an artistic vision in a world filled with color, accompanied by a special soundtrack by producer Berlinist<\/em>, a producer from Barcelona.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You can find out more about what Conrad does on his Portfolio<\/a> as well as his Instagram<\/a>, where he inspires nearly 300,000 followers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Through her Instagram<\/a> account, she inspires over 32,000 people with her designs. This artist\u2019s profile has been raised by reputable publications such as Vogue, La Vanguardia, Harper\u2019s Bazaar<\/em>, and Time Out<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Carlos Herraiz \u2013 Pictorial art<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Carlos Herraiz comes from a family of artists. The son and grandson of painters, he was born in Barcelona in 1995, and maybe it was his lineage that was responsible for him learning to hold a brush almost before learning to walk. His continuous training is notable: He developed his passion and talent as a painter at universities of note in Scotland, where he started his current project \u201cAusencias<\/em>\u201d.<\/a> He then returned to his city of birth to specialize in drawing and painting at the Barcelona Academy of Art<\/em>. Last year, he received a scholarship from the Leith School of Art<\/em> and went back to Edinburgh to study during his one-year art residency. Works by this young painter have been displayed at galleries in Barcelona, Edinburgh, and Glasgow. He is currently doing an artist residency in Greece, where he is experimenting with analog photography to use it as a base in his works.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

These are some of the names of the present and future who we at Jean Leon want to wish all the luck in the world and a professional career marked by success.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
