welcome to one of the johns!

Hello! My name is Jonathan Hill and I'm an illustrator/cartoonist living in Portland, Oregon and this is my portfolio website. Feel free to poke around the site and to read a little bit about me or to view my portfolio.

Here's a quick primer of who I am:

I've done work for clients ranging from bigger names like Fantagraphics Books and Hollywood Entertainment to smaller ones like local newspapers around town including the Willamette Week and the Asian Reporter, as well as contributing to lots of small press collections and anthologies.

My buddies Jason Rainey, Tyler Owings, and myself call ourselves brownpaperbag and we have an art blog that we post at regularly. You can check it out by clicking the brownpaperbag link at the end of the navigation bar.

First Second Books will be publishing Americus, the graphic novel I'm wrapping up right now that was written by MK Reed and illustrated by yours truly.

If you are interested in contacting me with work, comments, or hate mail, please e-mail me at jonathan [at] oneofthejohns.com. I'd love to hear from you - unless it's a death threat or I owe you money.

update log

April 27th, 2010 a.d.

I did some decor changes, a minor update to the portfolio, as well as cleaned up some things around the site that I have been too busy/lazy to get to the last year or so. If you see any dead links or spelling/grammar errors, please let me know.

And just a reminder- if you're looking for news or frequent updates, check out the brownpaperbag art blog. I post there on a regular basis. This site is used mainly as a portfolio.

xoxo - Jonathan
