ABOUT Mr NOPE

Who is Mr Nope?

I’m Neil Ellam, the designer and illustrator behind Mr. Nope. No Ordinary People Exist isn’t just a name — it’s the mantra behind everything I create. My work blends skate culture, streetwear influence, and bold illustration into designs with individuality and attitude.

My Creative Style

At my core, I’m an illustrator and artist — bringing skate-influenced energy and a storytelling mindset to every project. From custom skateboard graphics and streetwear apparel design to sportswear kits and branding, I combine bold illustration with clean design thinking to create visuals that stand out.

Experience & Collaborations

Over the past decade I’ve worked with global brands, independent labels, and sports clubs, producing everything from limited edition skateboard decks to fan merchandise, apparel graphics, and packaging design. Some of my favorite projects merge my love of illustration with my design background — pushing boundaries while delivering work that connects with fans and clients alike.
