About

I’m Nate Xopher. I’m an illustrator focused on telling inspiring stories with fun characters. My visual style blends my love of cartoons, comics, and games to create something that feels new yet familiar, focusing on smooth lines, bold shapes, and bright colors.

I specialize in character design, illustration, and comics.

My absolute favorite thing to draw is characters. I’m always designing someone new for my comic or trying a fresh take on an established character. You can check for your favorite characters in my Fan Art section or on my Instagram.

Sometimes I like to take an idea past the initial character design into a full illustration that can convey or story or emotion. These will often incorporate mystical or metaphysical themes and can be found on my Geometric Animals and Illustration pages.

I have a comic called The Wyld (co-created by Lee Xopher) which is an adventure series about a post-apocalyptic world of animals. We’re currently working on Chapter 4 of 6. Get caught up on the series here.

I also work as a graphic designer, create t-shirts, and have produced artwork for various clients including Upper Deck and Corgi Press. I live in Ohio with my wife (and business manager) Janae and our pug Stella.
