Francis Varley

I am a final year BA (Hons) Games Art student with a focus on illustration and worldbuilding for tabletop games. My project We That Remain is a single player tabletop role-playing game that uses illustration to visually describe a lonely industrial world in which withered automata explore an endless brutalist megastructure, examining themes of loneliness and architectural abandonment. I have been working on using artwork to visually describe the imaginative worlds within role-playing games, and have worked collaboratively to create role-playing game material of a variety of tones and themes. After graduating I hope to continue this work, creating my own games independently with the ultimate goal of being able to work in the industry in a freelance capacity.
