About me

Dear Sir/Madam,

My name is Jon Ashford,

I am writing to you in response to the Medikidz Art Editor position advertised on the creativepool website today.

I would relish the opportunity to work as Art Editor for Medikidz.

Medikidz comic books are such a great way to help children understand various health issues. I think the whole concept is inspiring and utterly brilliant.

I would feel very proud to be part of such a company.

I am used to setting deadlines, making sure projects are delivered on time and liaising with clients. I have over 16 years of extensive design experience to Art Editor level hence I am a pro with Photoshop and Indesign.

I am meticulous when it comes to precision and detail. Although children's health would be a new area for me, I am very sociable and extremely good at sourcing people and materials I need. My wife has a degree in illustration and some of her friends are comic strip artists so I have new contacts already.

I would like to add as it is not on my CV that my drawing ability is to a very high standard, although I have not actually drawn cartoons I would be able to create/re-adjust characters should this be appropriate.

I have all the skill requirements you have asked for, my experience with comic books is that I have really enjoyed reading a wide variety of them since childhood. This has continued and I can often be found hanging out in Mega City Comics book shop.

Please find my CV attached and for examples of my work paste the following web address into your browser: *

Please do contact me if I can provide you with anything else that could aid my application.

Many thanks.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards

Jon Ashford
