David Trebenski / Designer & Illustrator
Professional Designer & Illustrator with a passion for quality
About Me
I’m a Canadian Illustrator and Designer and my work focuses on digital concept art and tattoo work inspired by my favorite videogames.
I was born in the Golden Horseshoe of Ontario but grew up in North Carolina so I’ve called a few different places home.
I studied for two years towards my bachelor of fine arts at the Savannah College of Art and Design in Atlanta, Georgia.
After two years living and creating in Atlanta I decided to make a fresh start and settled in Toronto.
I spent the next 4 years completing my bachelors of design from OCADU. I currently live just outside of Toronto where I live and work as an illustrator and designer.
My work is inspired by a melting pot of styles. Ranging from classical oil painters to digital concept artists and traditional /Neo-traditional tattooing styles.
I’m passionate about creating beautiful and intricate works of art and driven by the need to constantly improve my craft, even if it means sacrificing a normal sleeping schedule to spend more time working.
Some things you should know about me. I love Tattoo work and I’m as passionate about collecting art from other artists as I am about creating my own.
I’m also a house mouse. There’s no place I feel more comfortable than at my desk, sucked into whatever I’m working on at the moment.
Now if you’ve made it this far and your not horribly underwhelmed please feel free to reach out and get in touch with me, browse the gallery, or even stop by the shop and help me avoid becoming a starving artist!
