About Me

IMPORTANT NOTE: Jon Jones, smArtist HAS MOVED AGAIN! http://www.THEJONJONES.com. Update your bookmarks!

 I work at NCsoft Austin, a major MMORPG developer based in Austin, Texas. I'm an Art Production Manager on Dungeon Runners, an exciting new free-to-play MMORPG for the PC. It's a really exciting job in a gorgeous city working on a game I'm thrilled about and want to play!

Prior to that I worked at Ready At Dawn Studios on Daxter PSP as a Foreground Artist. Before that, I was at Liquid Development, the industry leading art studio. I began working as a contractor, moved inhouse and eventually ascended into sales and marketing. There I developed a passion for business and became knowledgable on the subject of outsourcing art from all sides.

I'm always reading something about business. Balancing out my artistic needs by day and entrepreneurial tendencies by night keeps me incredibly busy, always working to find new ways to get better at everything. When I actually take a break from that, I watch movies or play video games -- of course.
