Jami Talon is the Art Director and Producer for the social MMO Furcadia. He has a degree in Linguistics and has earned many awards for his drawings and paintings over the years, though his favorite achievement of those was winning the gold seal in Texas State VASE in 9th grade by submitting a huge photo print of a tiny Chihuahua attacking the camera. James learned to love different cultures after living in Bydgoszcz, Poland for a year, but he doesn't recommend eating the duck blood soup. He's also participated in a cowboy mounted shooting (horseback riding with pistols) competition among other things and taught kids how to face off cows on horseback. For gardening as much as he loves it, he has the opposite of a green thumb, but he can't decide if that means he has a black thumb or not because in art theory the opposite would be a red thumb. His handle on instagram is james.talon.art if you want to see some of his artwork!
