Hi and welcome!
I’m Heiða Rafnsdóttir and I’m an illustrator, game artist and world builder. I've worked in game development and publishing for over 8 years and I run my own art studio. My work is heavily inspired by nature and fantasy.
In 2015 I graduated from the Reykjavik Academy of Digital Entertainment with a diploma in multimedia design and have taken various online courses in fundamentals of digital entertainment art at CG Masters Academy.
Before my art career I worked for over 13 years in law enforcement and surveillance and I have a BS degree in biology.
The past years I’ve been a member of the team at Parity Games. My role there has mostly been involved developing the art style, look and feel of the upcoming game Island of winds as well as directing art production of various features. In addition to that I’ve taken on illustration work for various clients, including Forlagið and Töfrahurð.
In my free time I enjoy food and nature, study music and sing in a choir. I live in Seltjarnarnes, Iceland, with my husband, two young adult children and two cats.

Have a great day,
