Ricky Hook

I'm Ricky, also known as No Dead Pixels, a UK-based graphic designer specialising in artwork for the music industry. I create album covers, visual identities, custom logos, and distinctive designs that translate sound into striking visuals, helping artists tell their story before a single note is heard.

Influenced by the UK's music scene and a lifelong passion for pop culture, gaming, and anime, my work combines concept-driven design with bold, expressive aesthetics. Drawing inspiration from Brutalism alongside the dynamic visual storytelling of anime and manga, I use strong typography, raw textures, and impactful compositions to create artwork that feels authentic, memorable, and impossible to ignore.

Beyond music, I also create original anime-inspired artwork and custom logos, blending cinematic compositions, stylised character influences, and striking graphic design to produce unique visuals with a distinctive identity.

Whether I'm working with emerging artists, established musicians, or personal creative projects, my goal is always the same: to craft visuals that capture emotion, strengthen identity, and leave a lasting impression.
