Illustrator PJ Reece

PJ Reece was born and raised in Canberra. He was more into sports than art as a youngster but always liked drawing and creating things at school. As an adult, PJ started to draw and paint a little bit but never studied art formally. He slowly filled up art diaries with sketches and, with practice, eventually began to create professional-looking illustrations. PJ started to get some freelance work, sold greeting cards to a few shops and did some spot illustrations for an educational publisher.

PJ Reece now lives in a coastal village a couple of hours from Canberra. In addition to illustrating, he enjoys listening to music, reading, getting out and about for exercise and spending time with his family.
