John Ritchey, hyper-detailed artist, brings a lifetime of traditional fine art experience to the horror scene. At 56, John hand-draws every subject with premium oil pencils (Caran d’Ache/Polychromos), blending backgrounds via alcohol markers, airbrush, and digital design—100% human-made with zero AI. Vending 30 Midwest cons a year, he also creates custom mixed-media shadowboxes with collectible figures. His original art shadowboxes are now officially recognized and authenticated by JSA.
