About the Artist!
Name: Jane Louise McGuinness
Date of Birth: 26/07/1984
Currently residing in: Birmingham, UK
Enthusiasms: Art (obviously :)), animals and birds, languages, reading, music, nature.
I've been enthusiastic about drawing for as long as I can remember, and have always gained most enjoyment from illustrative work and storytelling. Because of this, I'm genuinely excited to be following illustration as a career path. :) Of great benefit have been the Stripsearch comic workshops I've been attending, which are run with comic artists Hunt Emerson and John McCrea (as well as other frequent visiting artists), and have helped me develop my skills as well as generally boosting my motivation and confidence in my work. The scheme also means I will have a small press item published come the summer. :)
My current full-time art course is almost at an end, my next educational step being a degree course in Illustration at University (for which I've received a few offers). Until I begin in 2007, however, I plan to work and save some money, spend some time with my family in Scotland, and continue my illustration work.The Important Bit
I am available for comic art and illustration work. I can work in different styles - from the humorous to the sentimental to somewhere in between, so could tackle a variety of different areas required. I am happy to submit my own stories or to draw to a script. Please enjoy looking at my work, and feel free to contact me at any time if you have any questions, comments or propositions. ^_^ I'd love to hear from you.
