Jon St. Amant

Jon is a writer/illustrator based in Southern California. Since childhood, he has been imagining and creating worlds through writing and art. After earning a B.F.A. in drawing and painting and dabbling in fine art, he returned to his passion for narrative illustration through comics and graphic novel stories. His favorite thing to do is character design.

Nowadays, he works more digitally than traditionally with apps like Procreate and Clip Studio. He is a member of SCBWI, Kids Comics Unite, and the Cartoonists of Orange County.

In addition to teaching middle school art and savoring family life, he enjoys hiking, surfing, collecting comics and graphic novels, learning how to tattoo, traveling, gardening, tending to his bees, playing on his PS4, brewing beer, and trying unique food.
