My name is Michał Dziekan, I’m an artist based in Warsaw, Poland.

I work in fields of

illustration,

character design,

art direction &

visual development.

Original human art created with a ton of passion.

I have a lot of experience in creating art for commercial purposes, I worked in an advertising division of an animation studio as a concept artist, a motion designer and an art director before I turned to illustration industry.

I create advertising illustration , package/branding and promotional art.

Some of my clients: Cd Projekt Red, Asus, PKO Bank Polski, Mitsubishi, Canal+,Hobby Japan, Chouffe beer, Good Shepherd Games

commercial illustration

In my editorial artworks I often tackle subjects revolving around social issues, psychology, human relations, pop culture, science or tech.

But I’m not afraid of any topic.

Some of my clients: Newsweek, Wall Street Journal, cNet magazine, ACC Docket, Milken Review, DF magazine, Gazeta Wyborcza,, Wysokie Obcasy, Zwierciadło

editorial illustration

My illustrations are heavily character driven so turning to character design was very natural to me.

I focus on stylized characters for animation and advertising.

Some of my clients: Dreamworks, HiFi 3d, Platige Image, Televisor, Juice, Taxi CA, DDB Tribal, 180Heartbeat, Pracuj.pl, Zott, Milka

character design

Art direction, often supported by visual development is the field of creativity in which I synthesize all of the knowledge I gained over many years of the work at various studios as an illustrator, a character designer, a concept artist or a motion designer.

It’s all about the big picture and a coherent vision with a bit of gut feeling about it all.

Some of my clients: Dreamworks, Netflix, Platige Image, Juice, Televisor, Flying Wild Hog
