JowyB is a neurodiverse freelance illustrator from Birmingham, UK, with over a decade of experience across a wide range of illustration styles. His work includes character design, book illustration, concept art, and cartoon portraits, blending both Western and manga influences.
He currently runs two successful freelance art brands, JW Sketches and JowyB, where he creates artwork for authors, writers, musicians, and businesses looking for unique illustrations and visual designs.
