Piotr Arendzikowski
An independent illustrator and a concept artist living in Warsaw, Piotr has been creating for 6 years, ever since he gave up IT studies at the Warsaw University of Technology, after which he started learning to paint and draw from Ventzie Pirankov.
Specialises in designing characters and illustrations for the needs of books, films and games. In his work, he often uses themes related to history, fantasy and science fiction.

Piotr draws inspiration from pictures of old masters: Jacek Malczewski, Rembrandt, Lucien Freud, Johna Singera Sargent, Howarda Pyle, N.C. Wyeth and many others.
In the last years he's been cooperating with such companies as Platige Image, Sony Online Entertainment, ORKA Studio, Fantasy Flight Games, Paizo, CI Games. Just to mention some of the titles he has worked on: Witcher 3, Lords of the Fallen, Star Wars LCG, Shadowrun, Pathfinder, Sniper 2.
