About the Artist
G William is a freelance illustrator and qualified teacher. Born in the heart of West Yorkshire,
He works in a variety of styles and mediums while specialising in illustrating children’s books and describing himself as a ‘cut-price Quentin Blake’.
Looking at his work, this may not actually be true as it clearly reflects an unhealthy obsession with comics and fantasy art, alongside Mr Blake’s loose line work. Working both traditionally and digitally, his work reflects a very graphic style with strong linework and a disdain for straight lines. Though specialising in Children’s illustration, he has completed a number of projects ranging from storyboarding and comics to graphics and logos, but is never happier than when he’s doodling in ink and letting his imagination go wild. Working alongside Calder Graphics, he hosts the monthly art event Pen and a Pint and, in his ‘spare time’, runs a martial arts club.
