About David Rabbitte

Thanks for visiting my Portfolio. 

David Rabbitte, concept artist, illustrator and animator, was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts and lived in the U.S. until his parents decided to move the family back to their roots in Ireland when he was eight. David lived there for sixteen years for the most part residing in the quiet countryside in County Galway before moving to Dublin in ‘89 to study Graphic Design, Illustration and Animation. After completing art school, David soon landed a job as a background painter at Don Bluth Ireland Ltd animation studio working on his first feature The Pebble and the Penguin. A year later Bluth moved his crew to the U.S. in Phoenix, Arizona where they worked under 20th Century Fox’s new company Fox Animation Studios. It was there that David worked as a background painter and concept artist on features such as Anastasia, Bartok the Magnificent and Titan A.E.

David has also worked at Fat Cat Animation on projects such as Fat Albert, Curious George and the award winning short Rindin the Puffer, as well as working in freelance illustration for various well known clients such as Lucasfilm, Marvel, Acme Archives, Boom! Studios, and Topps Cards, to name a few. 

Since 2013, he has been working full time in the casino gaming industry as a Digital 2D Artist creating symbols and assets for slot games. He has been employed by high profile studios like Designworks Gaming, Everi Games, and currently an illustrator at Aristocrat Gaming.
