Meet your Magical Professor

Hi, I'm Patrick Jones and I've worked for most major SF/Fantasy publishers and film companies worldwide. I've had the honor of being a cover artist for authors including Simon R. Green and H.G. Wells and my concept work can be seen in movies such as Peter Pan and The Great Raid. I've written several best-selling books on art (some of which you can find on Proko) and I've taught Anatomy of Style workshops at universities, online, and publicly in Brisbane, Australia. Now I'm here to instruct and help you gain the skills you'd want to acquire as an artist.
