Hello! I’m Jonny. I'm a cartoonist, writer and illustrator living in Tennessee and creating stories with line and color. Here are a few of my favorites: - My own graphic novel series, **The Dragon Lord Saga**, published by Rabbit Room Press. Fantasy storytelling with heart... and a lot of silly humor! Three volumes have been printed to date, with more to come! - A spin-off anthology series, **Tales From the Dragon Lord Saga**, also published by Rabbit Room Press. This was a blast, because I got to assemble a team of creators and oversee their contributions, as well as pitch in myself with new, original content. - Children's picture book illustration, including **When Going on a Dragon Hunt** by Mark T. Collins, published by Bandersnatch Books. I've also illustrated **What Do You See?** by Nancy Bordine, and I'm currently working with Chef April Thompson on a series of comics starring **Sadie and Simon**. While the comics and picture books are where my heart is, I've done a little bit of everything in the world of visual storytelling: illustration and design for games and posters, webcomics, informational graphics, video storyboards, logo design and more. I would love to meet you! Feel free to contact me at any time with questions or comments. References and oh, so many more work samples are available upon request.…
