Jones [Member Since: June 05 '08] (Jones) [Are you Jones?]

There was never any choice in the matter. As a small child, without a television to hypnotize me, I began drawing visual stories to entertain myself in the quiet woods of Northern California. Raised by a single parent, enduring a mostly vagabond lifestyle, with little formal schooling to structure my days, I found comfort in my own imaginary worlds, and the creatures that inhabited them.

In 1993, at the age of 22, my vampire flavored comic book series BLOOD & KISSES was published. Since then I have worked exclusively as a freelance illustrator, conceptual artist, and character designer, while occasionally dabbling in comic book art for Dark Horse’s ALIENS: HAVOC, Alex Sheikman’s ROBOTIKA, Zenescope’s SE7EN: ENVY (written by David Mack), and the Tori Amos tribute COMIC BOOK TATTOO from Image, in which I wrote and illustrated a story inspired by her song Little Amsterdam.

My clients have included White Wolf Publishing, Rootamental Skateboards, Seattle Weekly, Human Head Studios, Verotik, Harper Prism, Disney Interactive, Scholastic, Visual Purple, Boston’s Weekly Dig, Curious Pictures, and The Learning Company.

In 2005 I finally left the sunny shores of California for the puddly streets of Portland Oregon, where I live with my wife Sarah Vendetti, working on various creative projects.

Hey Tyler! I read about Heavy Ink on THE COMICS REPORTER website and thought I’d give it a shot. I’m a long(ish) term (three years or so) Netflix member and really like how that site’s set up, so the comparison made in the TCR article/interview sparked my interest. So far I’m very happy with HI and looking forward to seeing what your guys do next. I wish you all the success in the world and hope that what your doing is as revolutionary for the comic biz as Phil Seuling’s Direct Market was thirty years ago.
