- Biography
John Holcroft is an illustrator based in Yorkshire UK. Graduating in the 90s he stared going freelance, working in acrylics on board. Since then he has reinvented himself many times. Currently he works digitally but emulates a screen print style.
John has widened his repertoire in order to appeal to different markets such as publishing, editorial, advertising and design. His success is due to the various ways in which his style can be used whether it be for book cover illustration, theatre poster or magazine illustration. Those who are familiar with the name ‘John Holcroft’, you will be aware of the cutting, satirical messages in his concepts, however this is just one side to his work.
Over the past 23 years John Holcroft has worked with some of the biggest names: Financial Times, BBC, Reader’s Digest, Economist, New York Times, Informa, Experian, Honda and Wall street Journal to name a few.
