'''JTigerclaw''' (real name: '''Jon Stelter''') is a [[furry artist]] from [[Wikipedia:Savannah, Georgia|Savannah, Georgia]]. He is best know as the artist of the [[webcomic]] [[Fletcher Apts]], which he started in October 2005.

== Person ==

Originally from [[Wikipedia:Galveston, Texas|Galveston, Texas]], JTigerclaw (or "JT" as he likes to go by) went to college at [[Wikipedia:Savannah College of Art and Design|Savannah College of Art and Design]] where he graduated from in March 2007 with a BFA in Broadcast Design and a minor in Interactive Design. Apart from his comic and art, he also enjoys playing basketball and keeping up with his favorite teams, the [[Wikipedia:Houston Rockets|Houston Rockets]] and the [[Wikipedia:Phoenix Suns|Phoenix Suns]] and watching his favorite player, [[Wikipedia:Steve Nash|Steve Nash]]. He also an avid [[Wikipedia:punk rock|punk rock]] fan and is in a punk rock band called [http://www.myspace.com/flappyband/ Flappy], in which he plays guitar and shares songwriter/singing duties.

JTigerclaw currently lives in Savannah, GA with 3 roommates from college (2 of which play in his band). He is soon to be seeking employment as a Motion Graphics Artist as soon as his personal website is up and running. In the meantime, he draws his comic and other furry art, plays in his band, and spends time on the internet. He is currently single.

== Fursona ==

[[Image:JTfursona.jpg|right|thumb|200px]]JTigerclaw's fursona is your average orange tiger with brown eyes and shaggy brown hair, about shoulder length. He wears a yellow t-shirt and camo shorts with a black studded belt. This style most closely resembles a [[Wikipedia:skater|skater]] style, which is modeled after JTigerclaw's real life clothing choice. He also wears a necklace with alternating silver cylinders and black spheres and has a piercing in his left eyebrow and in the right side of his lip, All of which he has in real life.

In some instances, (like in his comic) his fursona is drawn without certain details to make things a little easier. When this happens, the two piercings are usually omitted, as well as the Vans logo on the front of his shirt. Also, unlike his fursona, JTigerclaw wears black eyeglasses more often than not in real life.

Though some may assume that the J in JTigerclaw stands for Jon, this is not the case. The J was mostly tacked on to the beginning of the name to be more unique and because it was the first letter of his first name (Jon). JTigerclaw is actually just one word though, and the J actually does not stand for anything.
