Devon Fay

Lead Artist at Riot Games

Devon Fay is a Creative Director and Art Director at Riot Games. After graduating from Gnomon School of Visual Effects, Devon began his career at Blizzard Entertainment, creating matte-painted environments for titles such as Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty and World of Warcraft: Cataclysm.


He later worked as Matte Painting Lead on Diablo III, World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria, and Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm before transitioning to real-time game environments. Devon now shares his expertise as an online instructor at Gnomon, bringing insights from both pre-rendered and in-game environment creation to the next generation of artists.

  • Devon is one of those rare artists that combines great talent with the ability to teach and inspire those around him. He has an incredible eye and attention to detail that is hard to find nowadays. I feel privileged to have been able to see his creative process.
