TRADITIONALLY TRAINED.
RELENTLESSLY DIGITAL.
Eli Hyder is a concept artist and illustrator known online as @venamis, where a following of 90,000+ has grown around bold, cinematic character work.
Traditionally trained as a painter and self-taught in digital, he has spent 10+ years moving between freelance commissions and production work — illustrating official Assassin's Creed art for Ubisoft, drawing licensed sketch cards for Topps, Upper Deck, Marvel and Lucasfilm, and leading the art on an animated series and independent films.
He's happiest building worlds — designing the characters, props and environments that make a story feel like it belongs on screen. He's now looking to bring that energy to a studio team.
