About

I grew up in Missouri where I spent my childhood driving my hot rod tractor, watching Saturday morning cartoons, and drawing characters from the newspaper comics. In college I earned a BFA degree in Commercial Art and soon after graduation, got my first job in the art department of a publishing house in Tennessee.

In 1994 I began my freelance illustration career. My illustrations are a combination of hand drawings with digital Photoshop color. After a career of illustrating for various clients, I am now retired and making art mostly for fun and trying to sneak in a nap now and then. I post new things on Instagram @thedougjones take a look!
