About Us

Pixelsmithstudios and the Team

We started Pixelsmithstudios with the vision of bringing all the most dedicated designers and people willing to learn to this blog. We love bragging and bringing great works of inspiration and talent to light. We do a monthly Honorable Mention where we interview the artist we picked and then go to town on sharing their awesomeness (ness). The idea behind our project is to create a new design orientated environment of sharing, learning and expertise development to inspire current and upcoming artists.

We cater to:

Graphic Designers
Animators
Illustrators
Writers
Photographers
Any creative individual
The odd gamer and nerd here and there

The Team

We game when we can, we dabble in our arts and we help where we can! We’re a collection of nerds,photographers,journalists, geeks and gamers. This team has moulded Pixelsmithstudios into what it is today through hard work, good times and a shared dedication towards inspiring others.
