HI, I’M Jon
I’m a freelance illustrator, graphic designer, and art director specializing in fun, colorful, and bold pictures, posters, and logos. I love bringing drawing, hand lettering, and traditional print textures into my work.
I was born in Detroit, grew up in the suburbs, and went to school in Chicago. After many years of moving around the country and working as both a freelancer and in agencies, I returned to my home state of Michigan and have been freelancing full-time for the last seven years.
I've had the honor of working with a diverse roster of clients from bands like Dirty Heads, Death Cab for Cutie, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs, to publications like Detroit Metro Times, Seattle Weekly, and Time Out Chicago, and studios such as CBS Films and Comedy Central.

In my free time I enjoy making music, spending time with my family, wandering aimlessly in video games, and being outside.
