Randy Post

Biography

Randy "rk" Post was born September 28, 1968 in Davenport Iowa, the oldest of two children. He was raised in rural Illinois on a very small farm. Being fairly isolated allowed Randys' imagination to soar. Much of his time as a child was filled with imagining and drawing unearthly creatures and beasts, many of which have manifested themselves into Randys’ work as an adult.

Just prior to graduation from Northern Illinois University in 1994, rk post started freelancing the fantasy gaming industry doing interior illustration for several major game companies, gradually teaching himself how to paint with acrylics and eventually oils. rk garnered a staff illustration position at TSR (a company purchased by Wizards of the Coast soon after) in the fall of 1996 painting cover illustrations for games and novels. WotC and rk parted ways in the winter of 2000 and he now doubles as a full time freelance illustrator still contracting occasional assignments through the subsidiary of Hasbro, Inc., and as a 2D and 3D artist for Gas Powered Games. Most recently, he finished working full time as a 3D environmental artist for Sony Online Entertainment in May 2008.

rk has contracted and work through White Wolf, WizKids, Fanpro, Microsoft (Mythica, Xbox), LucasFilm, 20th Century Fox (Alien vs Predator), Sega (Dreamcast), Nintendo, Ballantine Books, Science Fiction Book Club, Hasbro (television and animation), Marvel Entertainment, DC Comics, Dark Horse Comics, the History Channel, and Blizzard Ent (Diablo 2, World of Warcraft). rk post has his collected works available in a hard cover art book, "Postmortem: The Art of rk post" by Cartouche Press.
