Steve Ferchaud was born December 22, 1959; he has been drawing ever since. His parents say he never went through a "scribbling" stage. Steve grew up in Northern California. He still lives there; he insists he is still growing up. His muses are the best: the masters of the Renaissance, Norman Rockwell, Arthur Rackham, N. C. Wyeth, and Howard Pyle. He also finds inspiration from Frank Frazetta, Bernie Wrightson, James Christensen, and the illustrators of Mad Magazine.
Steve cut his illustrating teeth with his college newspaper, winning several awards. Since then he has illustrated magazines, newspapers, posters, billboards, and book covers. He draws caricatures at special events. To date, he has illustrated over twenty children's books.
Steve is inspired by everything around him. He describes himself as a hermit who likes people. His next goal: write/illustrate his own books.
