About Patrick Thomas
Patrick Thomas Parnell, also known as PTP, is an accomplished American comic book artist, writer, and creator with a distinct presence in the independent comic book scene. His journey in the arts began with formal education at the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art, where he studied from 2001 to 2004. This institution is renowned for its focus on comic art and cartooning, providing Parnell with a solid foundation in the craft. Following this, he attended Ringling College of Art and Design from 2004 to 2008, where he studied Illustration and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) degree, with a minor in Concept and Development. Parnell's work is characterized by its blend of traditional comic book artistry with modern and innovative storytelling. He is particularly known for his creator-owned projects, where he exercises significant creative freedom, often opting to fund his projects through crowdfunding platforms like Indiegogo. This approach has allowed him to maintain independence from the mainstream comic book industry, fostering a close relationship with his fanbase and offering content that aligns with his artistic vision. One of Parnell’s most recognized works is "Johnny Phantasm," a comic book series that combines elements of supernatural fiction, crime, and horror, showcasing his ability to merge various genres seamlessly. His style often reflects a deep appreciation for classic comic book aesthetics, while also embracing contemporary themes and narratives that resonate with a modern audience. Beyond his work in comics, Parnell is known for his commitment to fostering creativity and supporting independent creators. He is a part of a broader movement within the comic book industry that emphasizes creator-owned content, which allows artists and writers to retain control over their work. Parnell's background in both cartooning and illustration, combined with his hands-on experience in concept development, has made him a versatile and respected figure in the world of independent comics. His work not only entertains but also pushes the boundaries of what comic book storytelling can achieve, making him a significant contributor to the medium.

Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Patrick cares about his students success, and wants to see them achieve their goals in art. He challenges them to do their absolute best!
I met Patrick almost ten years ago while he was an illustration professor at Ringling College or Art and Design. Patrick teaches by demonstration and example, which I believe is indispensable (but not always provided) in art instruction. Patrick is the right instructor for those really motivated to see improvements in their work.
