Who’s behind EFII?

Escape From Illustration Island is the brainchild of Thomas James, an Illustrator and Writer located in Portland, Oregon who works tirelessly to provide useful content, encourage community participation, and help Illustrators escape their isolation and achieve success with their freelance business. Although Thomas is responsible for the creation and maintenance of EFII, he shares the credit for its growth with the many Illustrators who make up the EFII Community.
