About Our Featured Artist:

Erin Fusco is 36 year-old artist, producer, and business owner and has been in treatment for BRCA2-induced pancreatic cancer for the past three years. She has nearly twenty years of professional artistic experience ranging from cartoony character designs to storyboards for reality tv shows. Her career was largely in mobile game art direction up until a few years ago when she switched to game production; now Erin is the producer for concept art and art outsourcing on Blizzard Entertainment’s Diablo IV.

Erin works on Diablo by day and her own art by night; a passion for merchandising pushed her to start her company “PinYatta!” in which she designs and sells high quality enamel lapel pins. Outside of art and work, she spends her time with her husband Adam and English Bulldog son, Brick. She loves cartoons, drag queens, Disneyland, Conan O’Brien, pins, Legos, and nail polish. You can see more of her work on Instagram @zzleigh and check out her pins at PinYattaShop.com or on Etsy!
