Hi! I’m Yuqian Claudia Wu, though most people just call me Claudia.

I specialize in concept art and visual development for games and film, with a particular focus on 3D assisted 2D workflows. I’m passionate about cinematic storytelling and love exploring how mood, composition, and worldbuilding can emotionally transport an audience. Bringing the images in my mind to life—through whatever visual language best fits the story—is what drives my work.

In late 2024, I received First Place in the Student Environment Concept Design category at the Concept Art Awards, and since then, I’ve continued pushing myself through a wide range of stylistic and worldbuilding experiments.

I’m drawn to any piece of art, game, or film that can make me feel something whether that’s awe, tension, melancholy, or excitement. My goal is to create worlds and images that offer that same emotional pull for others.
When I’m not painting, I’m usually studying cinematography, exploring new techniques, or developing personal worlds and stories. I’m also deeply passionate about both AAA games and indie titles—they constantly inspire my visual language and worldbuilding. Always excited to collaborate and bring new ideas to life.

I’m always excited to collaborate.
