About Me

Ariana Isbell is a storyteller who uses kindness, compassion, and warm-heartedness as inspirations for her character designs, visual novels, and illustrations. She prides herself on a chameleon-esque approach; able to blend and adapt to any style, technique, or process with refined skill and speed. 

Isbell earned a two-year Associate Degree in Digital Arts, which she procured while still in high school then proceeded to graduate from California State University, Fullerton with a BFA in Entertainment Arts & Animation with a Minor in Japanese. 

Previously, Isbell worked as a freelance commission artist and as a host on the video game design podcast, The Funsmith Fireside Chats, from Game Design Skills. Currently, Isbell is hard at work on her very own one-woman, self-published visual novel. After two years of writing, programming, designing, and illustrating, she hopes to release the game in Winter 2023.
