About

Jim Di Bartolo: I'm a freelance illustrator who works in traditional and digital media on book covers, interiors, and comic books. My clients include Little, Brown and Company, Hodder & Stoughton, Arthur A. Levine Books, G.P. Putnam's Sons, Simon & Schuster, Scholastic Press, Dark Horse Comics, Upper Deck/Marvel, Image Comics, White Wolf Publishing, and others. I've collaborated on the art for three novels and one graphic novel with my wife, the writer Laini Taylor, and our most recent collaboration (LIPS TOUCH: Three Times) was a finalist for the National Book Award. I live in Portland, Oregon with Laini and our new daughter Clementine.
