Noah Bradley is a former American Magic: The Gathering artist.[1][2][3]
Education and art syle
Bradley attended Rhode Island School of Design, but left to finish his degree at Virginia Commonwealth University due to high tuition costs. He argues that art schools are needlessly expensive, and advises prospective artists to instead commit to a combination of self-study, local figure drawing sessions, and one-on-one tutoring.[4][5]
Misconduct and departure
On June 22, 2020, Wizards of the Coast cut ties with Noah after the artist confirmed allegations that he had engaged in inappropriate sexual conduct with members of the Magic and artist community.[6][7] Wizards stated they would no longer commission artwork from him and would remove reprints of his work from their products, including replacing art on digital platforms with alternatives.[8] The latter was most notable in the 2021 reprint of the Mystery Booster set.[9]
