Presently Héctor Ortiz works as a freelance illustrator for companies like Wizards of the Coast, Fantasy Flight Games and Paizo Publishing among others, but he's actively looking for a full time job doing illustration / key art or concept art. May relocate if required.

Based in San Francisco, CA. He has been working in the design field for over 7 years as a graphic, web, illustrator, packaging, POP, product and retail display designer.

He chose being an illustrator and concept artist full time as his most important career goals. He wants to draw and draw in a company where he can work steadily for many years and make a living out of doing something he really feels passionate about.

He started his career as a graphic designer then moved to web design. Later he became a "Jack of all trades" at Seesaw Inc, an outsourcing agency based in NYC. There he developed his product, POP and display design experience.

He also would like to get to work in a studio environment with other people next to him. He highly values the idea exchange dynamic between co-workers. After all the whole point comes down to create the best design the team can conceive for any given project.
