Dominik Mayer

Dominik Mayer is a German Illustrator focused on dark fantasy art. Vibrant colors, dynamic compositions, and the use of geometric shapes make his art striking and unique.

He studied Illustration and 3d Animation and worked as an in-house 3D/2D generalist, Graphic Designer, and Concept Artist in Hamburg and Munich before becoming a full-time freelance Illustrator and art director for the Game and Movie industry.

He works for clients worldwide, among them Wizards of the Coast, Axis Animation, Netflix, Blizzard, Tencent, and Riot Games.

Besides his work as an industry professional, he also works as an independent artist on his own projects which can be followed on his social media channels.

Since the day he found his first Magic card in the garden of his parents, he became a huge fan of the game. With the set “Onslaught” being released back in 2002 he started his magic journey with a black and red goblin deck.

With Magic the Gathering being an important part of his life, it was a dream come true to create his first own illustrations for Zendikar Rising released in 2020. Since then he worked on a lot of different sets and illustrated iconic cards like Time Warp, Shock, the Triomes in New Capenna, and the command cycle in the epic Brothers’ War Saga.
