Illustration (BFA)

The greatest reward for me, whether it’s through teaching or making art, is sharing our creative spirit with one another.

Jon Reinfurt is an award winning illustrator based in Audubon NJ. Through his own unique brand of color and whimsy, Jon brings all kinds of projects to life whether it’s editorial, products, or advertising. Over the years his work has received recognition from 3x3, American Illustration, Communication Arts, How magazine and the Society of Illustrators, and his art has appeared in a variety of galleries across the country.

In 2016 Jon teamed up with Hasbro and Level-5 to work on the American adaptation of the Yo-Kai Watch trading card game. As the primary illustrator on the project he was responsible for creating over 140 illustrations for the beloved Japanese franchise. Other notable clients include The New York Times, NPR, Scholastic, Central Market, the Smithsonian, Time magazine, Sony Pictures, Saatchi & Saatchi, and the Wall Street Journal.

When not teaching or working away on an assignment, you can usually find Jon tinkering around with his hobby of building mobile apps.
