Jacob Prinsloo

I’m a graphic artist with over 25 years of experience creating editorial & technical illustrations, 3D visualizations, and infographics for public media and the educational sector. I have worked with numerous clients, including EduScience (Australia), Media 24 (RSA), ACK Media (India), and various school book publishers such as Maskew Miller Longman, Heinemann, Vivlia, Nasou via Afrika, and Awareness Publishing.

I have experience collaborating closely with editors and reporters in various publications, including newspapers, books, and magazines. My portfolio includes work for several children’s science magazines and science-themed comics. One career highlight was a project to create illustrations for the children’s encyclopedia series Awareness World of Knowledge for Awareness Publishing.

My passion lies in visual storytelling and in developing visual solutions that make complex information and data sets understandable and engaging. One expression of this passion was the creation, research, and writing of my own science education comic story titled Time Gliders, which has been published in various children’s science magazines.
