Hello there!
Steam Crow makes monsters!
We draw monsters, invent their stories, and make products based on them. We’ve been creating monsters for years, but in 2005 my wife Dawna suggested that we could illustrate and create our very own book of monsters, Monster Commute. Now, six years later, Daniel is making a living at it.
Read our full story, have a look at our monster goods, and thanks for stopping buy!

Man, it’s that time again – the Phoenix Comicon! This will be our 7th consecutive PHXCC – and each one keeps getting bigger and better. Our first PHXCC had 2300 attendees (according to Wikipedia) and last year we had 24,000! This year, I think that number is going to be Read more »

I often speak about creators avoiding making a quick-buck on “fan art”; basically making prints out of popular characters that belong to big media companies. I’m sure that you’ve seen them: Batman, Dr. Who, or Star Trek prints – that usually don’t belong to the artists that are selling them*. Read more »
Here’s our latest Steam Crow print: Invent Tomorrow Today! It was inspired by the 1935 Chicago World’s Fair, old time optimism, and the sense that technology could save us all. I like to think of it as inspiration for making your life the way that you want to live Read more »
Here’s a new print that Dawna illustrated, to inspire her art students to draw! We liked it so much, that we decided to offer it to our friends and supporters too! This art features KlawBerry, our little monster girl character… going for broke with her mighty pencil-o-powar! This is the first Read more »
Snappy is the monster camera. He takes photos of the monster world. He sees what you cannot. He also bites fingers! See how Snappy smiles?! This photo shows me building the mold for Snappy. I’ve been working on a new resincast toy here the last couple of weeks… sculpting, Read more »
Steam Crow will be back in Los Angeles, for the LA Times Festival o’ Books! This will be our second consecutive Fest and we’ll be at booth 101 – next to Baby Tattoo Books. We’re bring as much swag as the tent will hold, but we’ll have a bunch of our Read more »
Here’s our latest art print: The cabinet of Dr. Caligari! This was a fun one to illustrate since Dr. Caligari himself wears a tall hat, and a sour expression. Did you know that he was Tim Burton’s inspiration for the Penguin in Batman Returns? (He was, it’s true.) The Read more »
