Pinball Artist
Kevin O’Connor is a prolific pinball artist whose career spans from the late 1970s to the present day, having created art for more than 60 machines. He started at Bally during the golden age of pinball, where he produced iconic artwork for titles like KISS, Centaur, Flash Gordon, and Star Trek—each featuring his signature use of vibrant color, dynamic figures, and imaginative compositions. O’Connor’s early success helped define Bally’s classic “house style,” yet he remained adaptable enough to work with other manufacturers (including Williams, Midway, Data East, and Stern), continually evolving his approach as technology and player tastes changed.
