I’m Greg Houston, a Baltimore-born illustrator and author. Since 1988 I’ve worked as a professional illustrator for newspapers, magazines, publishers, and nonprofits, collaborating with clients such as Los Angeles Times, Village Voice, Marvel Comics, Baltimore Sun, Johns Hopkins University Magazine, and many others. My work includes graphic novels Vatican Hustle (NBM, 2009) and Elephant Man (NBM, 2010), as well as authoring Illustration That Works (The Monacelli Press, 2015) and Understanding Caricature (The Monacelli Press, 2021).
Beyond freelance illustration, I teach and develop curricula. I was a Professor at the Maryland Institute College of Art (2006–2015), co-created the Illustration Workshop and Illustration Core curricula for the MICA Pre-College Program, co-founded The Baltimore Academy of Illustration in 2015, and have taught through Osher Lifelong Learning Institutes and Craftsy courses. I’m driven by story, character, and the joy of helping others bring pictures to life.
