Hey there, I’m Ric.
I design and create integrated visual experiences.
I am Ricardo Komboa Mireles, a father, a seasoned Hip-Hop MC and an experienced graphic artist. Family, music and art define who I am, and who I aspire to be.
As a visual artist, my experience stems from many years of working for entertainment advertising agencies all throughout Los Angeles. Some of the more notable are Petrol, Craig Murray Productions, Trailer Park, The Refinery, Hamagami & Carroll, Be Design, 11:24 Design, Ayzenberg, and of course, Blizzard Entertainment.
My body of work ranges from graphic design, print & online advertising, branding, consumer products, apparel, digital illustration, typography, art direction, corporate I.D., packaging, interactive (UI / UX Design & Layout) , broadcast (storyboards and visual development), creative strategy, and creative direction.
My personal work is inspired by curiosity and wonder. I enjoy exploring creativity through illustration, photography, motion graphics, or any medium to keep myself creatively stimulated.
Without deviation from
the norm, progress is
not possible.
-Frank Zappa
Throughout my career, I've had the privilege to work on projects ranging from music, film, video games, consumer products, esports, and live experiences.
Currently I am the global Associate Creative Director for Overwatch and Overwatch League brand expression & development within Global Publishing at Blizzard Entertainment. I’ve helped launch 3 AAA titles, 20 professional esports franchises and multiple pro esports tournaments and leagues globally.
I love art in all its forms and continually strive to expand my creative abilities by exploring new mediums in which to create. Thank you for visiting my website!
