Maria J. William is an award-winning artist and illustrator specializing in fantasy, science-fiction, romantic and figurative art. She had been working as a freelance artist since 1995. Her artwork has appeared on the covers of books, in galleries, and in private collections, as well as a number of printed and online art compilations. She is also a regular exhibitor at genre art shows and conventions throughout the country. She has published two art books, and is currently working on her first novel.
Maria describes her work as fantasy portraiture, with heavy influences from Asian cultures, modern fantasy art, mythology, Art Nouveau and Pre-Raphaelites. She works primarily in traditional mediums, such as pencils and watercolors, but is equally comfortable with digital mediums. Maria resides in New York City with her husband of fifteen years, their two young children, and two feline sidekicks. |
