Jonathan Williamson
Born in Kansas on January 12th, 1989, has been dabbling in art ever since he could hold a crayon. He was always sketching but when he turned 14 and discovered 3D things became serious. Since 2003 he has been completely immersed in the digital arts and has never looked back. For the last four years his focus has been character modeling and design. He also actively works to pass on the skills he's learned by producing training materials for his software of choice, blender.
Jonathan has been very active in the blender community over the years: he helped organize and present two blender conferences in Montreal, one blender conference in New York, and returned two consecutive years to North Carolina to teach alongside fellow Blender-artists at a Summer camp for junior-high students hosted by Red Hat Linux. He has also been featured in two publications on Blender.
Currently Jonathan is working as a full-time freelancer as the head of Montage Studio, actively producing training materials and working on freelance work.
