Paul Hammond is an award-winning Canadian artist, illustrator, and sometimes comics creator working from his home in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.  His work is bold & playful, with regular dips into the realm of the weird. He employs frequent use of hand-drawn lettering, pattern and texture, with a combination of traditional drawing methods and digital techniques. He thinks mistakes are beautiful, and likes to leave them in when he's allowed.​

Educated at NSCAD University (BFA 2005), he cut his teeth designing & screen-printing gigposters & fine art prints under the name Yorodeo with long-time collaborative partner Seth Smith for almost no money.

Paul currently works as a Senior Artist with the amazing folks at Max Inferno Games Studio in Halifax. He also maintains a limited freelance practice in many areas including kid lit, commercial illustration, & package design.
