Creator/writer/Artist/designer/animator
I am a self-taught, freelance artist who has been creating and drawing since I was 6 years old. Growing up with an artist father and brother, my love for comics, heavy metal and horror have fueled my nightmarish brain children. I have worked in many styles for different clients in the fields of comics, painting, animation, manga, pixel art, video games, logo and character design with and emphasis on comic book colors and letters. I love working with pencil and ink on paper and then finishing with digital colors. My large format landscape paintings are done in acrylic with dark palettes and vivid highlights using florescent and metallic hues.
In 2010, I started producing and self-publishing my action/horror comic book series called Damien’s Shadow which I write, color and letter. I work with award winning artists from around to world to give the book a unique blend of styles. I have written and drawn two short stories for the Tales of Cape Fear anthology book. I am also the colorist for a comic called Omega Man, and I do the colors, lettering and a variant cover for a book called Firstworld.
In 2015, I created an animated music video for the punk rock band After The Fall out of Albany, NY. I have also done cover art and logos for the Denver based death metal band Abstract Delusions and the Chicago native hip hop artist Mr. Creep.
I started creating NFT collections in the Fall of 2021, starting with my first collection, "Madd Bonez". I have since created about a dozen other collections featuring different characters and styles like pixel art, digital paint and video game animations. I am the artist and cofounder of Stank Ape Speak Easy, a CNFT with IRL brewery integration though McAllister Brewing Company. I also design some of McAllister’s beer labels and graphics. I am a devoted father and husband who loves music, film, comics, cigars, chilling on the beach and craft beer.
I am currently working on issue 4 of my book, Damien’s Shadow. The first few chapters can be found on Comixology and my website AtomicRotation.com. You can find me @andybonesteel on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. Email me at andybonesteel@gmail.com for inquiries and booking.
