About the Artist

Rupam - Psychological Horror Illustrator

Hello! I am Rupam, an award-winning illustrator from India, currently living in Kolkata.

I specialise in psychological horror, dark narrative fantasy, and crime fiction. My work is mostly influenced by nightmares, folklore, ADHD, and the general existential horror of living with my brain. It explores themes of emotional unease, anxiety, dread induced paralysis, isolation, and the fear of the unknown. My illustrations have appeared on book covers, promotional campaigns, entertainment properties, and other projects that require distinctive dark visual storytelling.

Preferred choice of media: Procreate / gouache paints, oils paints, and matt acrylics. In that order.
