Joan G. Stark
Joan G. Stark, also known by her pseudonym Spunk, is a prolific ASCII artist.
Deemed by many as the "Queen of ASCII art", Joan is easily recognized by the famous initials jgs which she signs her artworks.
Joan was first exposed to the art of ASCII in the summer of 1995 and by July 1996 had taken to the creation of ASCII. [1] From 1996–2003 she created several hundred works of art, most of which were posted to the Usenet newsgroup alt.ascii.art. The humorous website, asciiartfarts.com, makes frequent use of Joan's work under the fair use doctrine.
