Hi! I'm Anthony Piraino, an illustrator and graphic designer living in North Carolina. When I was a kid, some of my teachers used to get mad at me when they caught me drawing in class. Now, people mostly don't seem to mind.
I enjoy drawing whimsical characters in fanciful scenes. I try to bring plenty of warmth to my illustrations using texture and stylized forms.
When I'm not drawing I enjoy writing, hiking and traveling with my family, making photographs, and playing ultimate frisbee.
You can follow me on Mastodon or Instagram, if you'd like, or check out my YouTube page where I post timelapses of some of my artwork.
Want to discuss a project?
If you need icon or interface design for mobile or desktop apps stop by the Iconfactory's website, where I'm a designer.
For anything else, I'm available on a limited basis for freelance illustration work. Email me at if you'd like to discuss a project or just say hi.
