Jean Campbell
Classic and contemporary, with a large dose of fantasy thrown in for good measure, graphic artist and designer Jean Campbell has been bringing imagination to the computer screen since 1988. Her experience and imagination are the driving forces behind Kitchen Sink Creative Group.
Born in London, England, to a military family, Jean grew up in Hawaii, New Jersey, and Florida before returning to her parents' home state of Alabama. She attended the University of Montevallo, where she graduated with a degree in fine arts.
Following college, marriage, and two daughters, Jean returned to the Birmingham area, working both in fine arts and a new discipline – digital artwork on the computer. She worked with several leading software companies in the region, creating illustrations, animations, and web presences for clients such as United Cerebral Palsy, Digital Equipment Corp., and Intel. She has also had a number of her paintings featured in galleries and exhibitions in the area.
With KSCG, Jean is working to bring her particular brand of design and artwork to a broader audience on the internet.
“I really believe in bringing imagination to life,” she says. “I enjoy working with clients to come up with a concept, then taking all the bits and pieces and putting them together to come up with a fantastic image.”
Jean also practices yoga on a daily basis and is training to be a certified yoga instructor. She has been known to show up for an open mic night somewhere in the metro Birmingham area with her steel guitar in hand. She has two daughters, Melissa and Caroline. She and Richard Kirby were married in June, 2007.
