Shannon Townsend
Web Comic Artist
Studio ONY
Fenton, MI
Biography:
Shannon has been drawing almost her entire life, but a chance channel-surfing incident when she was 16 turned her on to Anime, and she's never been the same since. Self taught in the art style of Anime and Manga, Shannon has worked on numerous freelance projects over the years for everything from board games to websites and children's books. She now spends her time working on Otaku -no- Yen and planning Studio ONY's upcoming comic projects with her husband and writer Richard. When she isn't drawing, she's belly dancing or poi spinning with her troupe back in Detroit.
