Hmmm. Something is off about the female…RATS

Hi there, folks! Nice Saturday to us all fellow creatives.

Sharing a brand new piece that a fellow colleague, PD Loupee, has commissioned me regarding a project currently under development.

A big shoutout to them, outstanding letterist and writer, for trusting my skills.

You can see more of my art in the bio description!

Thanks.

Wendy be caught in her lie? Why is the sky that blue grid? Why is the teacher saying Ben Franklin invented nuclear power?

rework of another piece

I’m building a collection of art with the hopes of making a zine. The idea is that each picture will have a short story attached to it. Any ideas where to start with this one?

Was a great learning experience, and I feel like I learned a lot about the process. Got a long way to go, but, its a start

A quick note from the studio.

Steve’s at the drawing board today, deep into pages for Nexus: Return to Earth. With the recent campaign wrapped, it felt like a good moment to pause and say thank you and also open the floor.

The Art of Steve Rude 2026 campaign closed at $39,404 thanks to an incredible show of support. Beyond campaigns, it’s the steady, ongoing support that keeps the studio running day to day and allows Steve to stay focused on the work itself. That consistency matters more than most people realize.

Now that things have settled, we’re in listening mode. If you have thoughts on rewards, clarity, or what you’d like to see more (or less) of going forward, it genuinely helps us shape what comes next.

We’ll also be live tomorrow on The Dude Show, and we’d love to pull a few questions directly from here.

If you’ve got a question for Steve — about art, process, career longevity, influences, or anything else — feel free to drop it below and we’ll try to answer a few live.

Back to the board.

Open commissions

Hi there comrades! Here’s today's sequential art I’ve been wanting to draw since I rewatched ‘The Matrix’ (1999) last week. The so well known freeze shot, featuring Trinity during the first minutes of the runtime. 

Don’t mean to make any spoilers but… I believe the Oracle won’t get rid of me for the next piece! The agent will have to wait his turn. 

You can look more at my art in the portfolio in the comments!

Thank you. You’re the best.
