Welcome to Hellion's art.com
My name is Gillian Pearce although I do prefer to be
called Gill. I tend to lurk around online using the
nicknames Hellion or Kharnate. I divide my time between my
day job working in a local school and illustrating on a
freelance basis. I also help out as art director for Dark
Quest Games.
I have been illustrating professionally for approximately 12
years now and I have numerous publishing credits in various
fields ranging from book cover and interior illustration,
card game artwork, role-playing game illustration and
cartography.
My artwork is created using traditional methods and very
little in the way of computer enhancement aside from map
labels and the like. My colour work is produced using a
heady mix of watercolour and acrylic paint with a hint of
ink and pencil and my black and white work is primarily
achieved using fine-liners, although I do occasionally
indulge in black and white pencil work. I like to consider
myself versatile when it comes to subject matter and will
tackle sci-fi, horror, fantasy scenes, figures, monsters and
maps with the same enthusiasm.
On a more personal level, I live in the United Kingdom and I
have been happily married to Darren “Wolf” Pearce for 13
years now. Darren is a freelance writer with a number of
publishing credits of his own in the role-playing game and
computer game industry and it is our intention to team up on
more joint projects in the near future.
