Hi, I'm Evan Hayden. I was born & raised
in Michigan, lived in Ohio, California,
Nagasaki Japan, and am now an Ohio boy
again. I focus on
photography
and
illustration, and
especially like to combine them together into a
hybrid. I also occasionally like to make music
and DJ, which I do under the name "Macro".
I've enjoyed making art my whole life, for
as long as I can remember. I focused on it
throughout my education, and have worked on
a variety of projects mostly in the fields
of photography and graphic design since
graduating university. In 2013 I seized an
opportunity to teach elementary and junior
high level English in Japan, and had a great
time doing that for a few years and had many
chances to integrate art and art education
into my English lessons. I did occasional
freelance work while there which morphed
into pretty much fulltime freelance work -
lettering and graphic design for manga! It's
a fun gig. It keeps me very busy (so busy!) On this site you'll see a ton of my
art throughout the years, and new stuff as I
post it! Be sure to follow the
blog to keep up to date! Truth-be-told,
I haven't had much time to work on personal
creative projects this past few years, since
I work long hours at the manga job, and I'm
the father of a wonderful and wild little
toddler, but I try to make some art here and
there when I can. Someday hopefully there
will be a bit more life to my
work/life balance, and I'll be back to
updating this site with lots of art. In the
meantime, there's plenty of art here for you
to check out, and plenty of manga I've
letterered out on the bookstands and digital
storefronts for you to read!
