Jason Brooks (illustrator)

Jason Brooks is an illustrator based in London. He grew up in Brighton on the south coast of England.

Experience

He first began working as an illustrator on a freelance basis while studying Illustration at Central Saint Martins college, London, and went on to take a Master's Degree in illustration at the Royal College of Art. Whilst at college he won the Vogue/Sothebys Award for fashion illustration.^{[citation needed]}

After leaving the Royal College, he began to get work as a fashion illustrator, mainly on the strength of his travel sketchbooks from journeys through Europe and Central America. He produced illustrated reports for the Independent Newspaper from the Couture Shows in Paris as well as the shows in New York for Visionaire and Max.^{[citation needed]}

During this time he also produced a series of flyers for Pushca, in the London club scene. These brought his illustrations to a wider audience each month as each themed party demanded a new piece of artwork.^{[citation needed]}

He is now an illustrator based in London.

Hed Kandi / Fierce Angel

One of Brooks' clients is the dance label Hed Kandi. Brooks designed illustrations for over 50 CD covers as well as promotional material. When Hed Kandi's founder Mark Doyle started a new label, Fierce Angel, Jason Brooks followed. However, on July 27, 2007, Hed Kandi announced that Brooks had returned to work with them. Meanwhile, the artwork for the Fierce Angel compilation Fierce Disco Vol 2 suggests that Jason Brooks no longer creates artwork for Fierce Angel.
