About the speaker
Phil Jones is a multidisciplinary artist from Minneapolis. His works span a range of mediums, including illustration, sculpture, graphic design, photography, and video. Phil's inner compass often guides his efforts toward the hilarious and absurd, which has afforded him a productive career in advertising. He's spent more than 10 years in the ad industry, and he has a batch of awards under his belt, including an Art Directors Club Young Guns award. But his passion projects---many of which are NSFW---are what people know him for. This makes his Mom very sad, but Phil continues to labor in the hopes that she will eventually recognize the inherent & profound humor of the human anatomy.
