Artist Profile

M. Wayne Miller has found his home as an illustrator of the bizarre, fantastic, and strange. His work has been described as Techno-Gothic Horror, combining dark mood with malevolent technology in a futuristic nightmare that has disturbing relevance in this new millennium. One look at his website will serve to enlighten one’s luddite sensibilities.

During the 90’s Wayne illustrated numerous issues of magazines such as DEATHREALM, TERMINAL FRIGHT, LORE, ABERRATIONS, FLESH & BLOOD and EPITAPH, as well as many role-playing gamebooks for Chaosium’s CALL OF CTHULHU series. Additionally, he completed sourcebooks for Web Games and color covers for Web of Heroes and the hardback short story collection Terminal Frights. Several of his works are featured in the hardback collection New Mythos Legends from Marietta Publishing.

Wayne’s work has been featured in many solo exhibitions, as well as the 1996 World Fantasy Convention, Dragon Con 1999, Fantasm 2K, and ImagineCon 2000. In 1999, he received the Best Monochrome Award in the prestigious World Horror Convention art show, and has been a StellarCon art show regular since #27, winning “Best Science Fiction” in 2004. His work was recently exhibited in “Art of the Imagination: Contemporary Illustration” at The Art Institute of Atlanta, along with the artists Bob Burden, Andy Lee, Dan Henderson, and William Stout.

Wayne is currently involved in a period of personal artwork production, honing his painting skills for a re-emergence as a color cover illustrator for mass-market book publishers, where the future looks incredibly dark and horrifically spectacular. To see more of Wayne’s work, including some new ones not yet on his official site, check out the forum sites conceptart.org (look for Wayne’s Darkworld), and thedarktower.net (look for Waynes Darkworld). Both are cool sites worth your time.
