THE ART OF JESSI NELSON:
Female Cover Artist:
Jessi Nelson was born in Indianapolis, IN, where she began drawing at an early age. Her first portrait was created on the top of a potato/onion bin. Her family still has it. Growing up, Jessi drew everyday. When she was in the forth grade, she won her first contest - a violin drawing competition and had the piece displayed in the Children's Museum of Indianapolis.
When Jessi turned 18 she moved to Atlanta, GA to pursue a career in comics and graphic illustration. A year later, she had her first pin-up published in a comic [Dead@17: Blood of Saints no. 1]. Since then Jessi has built a list of publishing credits and professional work in both comics and in the music industry. Now, Jessi works hard on her own comic stories while taking every opportunity to fashion full-color pin-ups for eBay and commissions on request.
Jessi's sequential artwork has been featured in such comic books and CDs as:-
