Hey there! My name is Steve Ellis. I'm an illustrator & comic/game/book creator/author. I've worked for companies such as WotC, Random House, Impact books, Marvel, DC, AMC, Blizzard & more.

My latest is my monster family album art book, Thornclaw Manor: Thornclaw.com

Come join me in this journey!
A person wearing armor but riddled with arrows, standing before a massive fiery dragon looming overhead. The main colors are yellow, red, and blue. A warrior looking woman holding a sword, wearing a fur shawl and a horned headpiece, standing in front of a twisted tree. Behind the tree is a massive snarling wolf. Crows are sitting in the tree's branches, as well as the roots. A gravestone marker leans against one of the tree's roots. A small raccoon on its back legs holding a large wooden shield and running across a lush green field. The raccoon is snarling, and also wearing green and brown armor. A hardcover book with a brown cover titled "Thornclaw Manor: Monster family album, an art book by Steve Ellis" with gold gilded edges. A monster's face with tentacles and a top hat is on the front.

I just started a Masters in Animation in Ireland. I’ve been going to a ton of life drawing classes reinvigorating my love of drawing for exploration and fun. Here are a few of the most recent sketches. All were done in short 1-10 minute poses.

Dear Disney, Even though you own every single IP I like ( for the most part, I have cancelled my subscirption because you capitulated to Trump and fired Jimmy Kimmel. You are an enemy of freedom of speech and a friend to totalitarianism and I will not give you my money.

So here is video from my ipad where I draw a nude from an art class I taught a while back. I'm really trying to pay attention to rythyms and flow in the figure to get the gesture.

My favorite scene in this week's Avengers Academy is getting to hang out with my friend and fellow letterer @joecaramagna.bsky.social.
A party scene in Avengers Academy #59, featuring the heroes as well as many of the creatives who make the comic. Me at the party talking the ear off fellow letterer Joe Caramanga who is wearing an iconic doughnut jacket.

PENDULUM (1999)
Acrylic on Panel - 11" x 9"

At times the light of knowledge seems to only illuminate the negative side of our existence and becomes a burden to the spirit. 1/2
A man stands on an outcrop of rebar in the space between two massive stone walls. In one hand he struggles with a lamp hanging on a long heavy chain while his other grips a rusted piece of metal anchored to the stone facade. Up high and barely visible is a thin line of hazy daylight that he can't see because he's looking down.

If you cast this spell for its mutate cost, put it over or under target non-Human creature you own. They mutate into the creature on top plus all abilities from under it.

Every once in a while I mess around digitally to make a quick sketch. I really love raw energetic work, but I often feel like finishes can tighten up too much. In this case I never finished it because I knew the energy would disappear.
