About the Artist:
Adam McCarthy is a professional artist and longtime Art Director in the video game industry, with more than three decades of experience shaping visual worlds in the digital space. While his career has been rooted in pixels and performance, his true passion lives in the tactile process of drawing and painting by hand.
Adam’s work carries a distinctly dark aesthetic, yet his imagery is ultimately rooted in strength and empowerment. He paints primarily women, depicted not as subjects but as forces, celebrating their power, resilience, and unapologetic presence as much as their beauty. Tattooed figures frequently appear in his work, honoring identity, individuality, and lived experience.
