Trainer Dora - I FINALLY found the artist!
When I first came up with the idea of PokeCardDrop, I searched around for inspirational images to drive the idea behind this project. At some point I was looking for fanart of popular characters as Pokémon Trainers. Eventually, I ran across THE image that, upon seeing for the first time, I thought 'Scalper, no scalping!'
Though the artist signed the piece, the post was associated with a dead end Instagram account using his old online moniker. But...I continued to hunt for this artist in order to strike up a conversation and seek use of this work.
Alas, this week, I have finally found him!
If you like the pack art on our drops, please be sure to let DayJohn Clement know! He can be found on many social platforms and has agreed to let us use his art freely. How awesome is that!?
You'll find full credit to him on our packs including a QR code that when scanned will have brought you to this post.
Thanks so much, DayJohn!
