James Jean Covers are incredible
James Jean is a visionary artist who loves making art from his uncommon imagination. He is one of the most famous and requested artists in the art market. Born in Taiwan in 1979, he attended the School of Visual Arts close to his home, the only available during his young years. He started his career working for big comic book giants like DC and Marvel Comics. In his curriculum, He can count on two famous fashion collaborations with Prada: his illustrations have been used to create delightful bags and dreamy limited edition dresses, which were all shown in visual presentations that were entirely designed by Jean. This collaboration came probably from his most famous one: the Cover books for Bill Willingham’s “Fables” (a DC Vertigo successful comic book series ). Beginning with the creation of cover issue #81, the collaboration continues until now.
