About Ryan Mills
I’ve been drawing pictures since I was old enough to hold a pen, and watching horror movies nearly as long. I’ve dabbled in other mediums – including a stint teaching acrylic painting classes for four years – but am always drawn back to the starkness of black and white.
My published work includes interior illustrations for updated editions of Criterium, The Dark Side of the Room, and Almost Ruth by Tyler Jones. I designed the front and back cover and contributed interior illustrations to Enter Softly, also by Tyler Jones.
In 2021 I worked on illustrating Burn the Plans by Tyler Jones, coming 2022 from Cemetery Gates Media. I also contributed illustrations to the StokerCon 2022 Souvenir Book, coming soon from Burial Day.
In my free time, I have a passion for reading Stephen King and a wide variety of horror novels, and for interior design. I live with my fiancé and our retired greyhound, Noodle.
