Jonathan Corrigan – Designer

I'm an illustrator who loves creating compelling pictures rich in story and content!

Overview

Thank you for looking at my work! I'm Jonathan, an illustrator based in sunny California.

With over 8 years of experience, I offer my expertise in illustration to clients who need illustration services. I graduated from California State University Long Beach with a degree in Illustration/Studio Arts where I learned how to create effective illustrations and refined my skills in design.

I enjoy creative storytelling and often produce new stories that become published projects sold through my brand Corrigan Press.

As the illustrator in your project, I connect your readers to your story through beautiful illustrations. When working with me, I operate as a partner, driven to help you find success. From consultation to final delivery, my goal is to lighten the burden of creating the visual story of your book by offering services in book cover design, illustration, typography, and layout design.

In summary, I'm a creative problem solver, meticulous, and goal-driven, I value professionalism and timely communication, and have a heart for telling amazing stories.

I'm looking forward to working with you!
