Meet Jim Whiting

        Jim Whiting began his career as a magazine cartoonist, creating chuckles for such well respected national publications as The Saturday Evening Post, Colliers, and LOOK magazine, remember any of them?

Following a short stint at a successful advertising agency in NYC, (unnamed here to protect its reputation), Jim began to sell his original cartoons to the above-mentioned clients and over 75 additional publications.  Mr. Whiting has created countless illustrations for books, magazines and presentations and developed drawings used to sell numerous products. 

His focus today is principally developing illustrations for manuals, corporate newsletters and trade publications. However, Jim is not too fussy in this respect and enjoys working with all types of clients and creative opportunities.

Jim Whiting's motto is, “When the light touch is the right touch – Call me!”

Most of Jim's work is done in pencil, black and white line drawings, with an occasional assist from his computers.

Whether it's his creations from the pen and trusted drawing table or "digitally done", he never fails to hear positive remarks about his work by his eclectic group of clients.

Life is full of interesting and exciting things.

Jim Whiting has lived in Southern California with his wife, Bernita since 1984 and they are happiest about the fact that their five children (all out of the nest now) are also five of their best friends.

For Jim, tennis is a passion. Whether watching or playing the game, a day with some tennis is always a better day!

Magic is also a rewarding hobby for Jim since grade school. Ask him for a quick illusion and smile along. But never ask how it's done, 'cause he won't tell...
