Orioto's deliciously deviant video game art

Remember how I said I used to want to be an artist--and be the next Shigeru Miyamoto? Well, Paris-based artist Mikaël Aguirre (aka Orioto) must have felt the same way as a child. The difference, of course, is that Aguirre (who is gay, by the way--yippee!) actually followed his dreams while I, well, write about them :)

If you've never come across Orioto's art, may I suggest you make your way over to his deviantART page pronto? After that, head to NeoGAF to learn more about him (and interact with him, if you'd like). Another worthwhile destination: BeefJack.com, which recently posted an in-depth interview with this multifaceted and multi-talented man.

Ha ha! Make sure you tell him that. I think he was a bit embarrassed that I outed him (in a way) in this post :)

Nice art, thanks for pointing him out.

You're very welcome, Quinn! Be sure to check out my post about the game he's working on--it looks amazing! Also, I'll be posting an interview with Orioto soon, too--keep an eye out for it :)
