Illustrations by Bret M. Herholz

My name is Bret M. Herholz. I am a freelance illustrator from the Worcester, MA area. I am author of DIARY OF THE BLACK WIDOW and a regular contributor for the UNDERCOVERFISH GROUP's anthology. I am a graduate of the Savannah College of Art and Design where I earned a BFA in Sequential Art. I primarily work in pen and ink (Winsor & Newton Black Indian Ink and crow quill pens), but I am also proficient in creating color work on Photoshop as well.  When I am not illustrating, I teach Youth Art and am a member of the faculty at the Worcester Art Museum in Worcester, MA, the Pincushion Hill Montessori School in Ashland, MA, The New Jewish Academy in Worcester, MA and art classes for the Worcester Public School's Night Life Adult Education. I am involved with both the Massasoit Art Guild and ARTSWorcester.
