MTGS User Magic Sr. Art Director |
Jeremy Jarvis is the current Magic: The Gathering Senior Art Director for Wizards of the Coast.[1] He is also a registered user (as mjeremyjarvis) on the [[Template:MTGS]] forums. He is the sole art director responsible for commissioning Magic: The Gathering artworks.
Early life and education
Jeremy grew up in small-town Alabama and promptly moved to New York City right after high school and just before his eighteenth birthday. There he attended Pratt Institute as a Fine Arts major, intending to work in comics upon graduation. He did survive Pratt, graduating Summa Cum Laude, but the desire to pencil comics had replaced with the love for watercolor.
Career
Off-center, often tounge-in-cheek concepting, an eye for detail, and the tragic ability to render that detail in unforgiving watercolor have landed Jeremy squarely in the Fantasy/Gaming Industry’s good graces. His work has been included in The Spectrum Awards and The Society of Illustrators’ prestigious Annual Exhibition.
Now residing in Seattle, Jeremy works in-house with Wizards of the Coast, having served as Lead Concept Artist and now serving as Art Director for Magic:The Gathering. During downtime, he enjoys bowling poorly (164), searching for the perfect ‘B’ movie, and writing in the 3rd person. [2]

Jarvis became Magic art director partway through Time Spiral block. One of his goals when he took over the job was to push for "spell" art that was less literal and more abstract and metaphorical. [3]
