THE ARTIST:
Born in 1950 Jonathan Wolstenholme attended his local grammar school in Purley before
graduating from Croydon Art College. He still lives in Surrey with his wife Margaret
and young son George.
He has been a successful freelance illustrator for many years, working for a number of major
advertising agencies, publishers and a great variety of magazines.
Jonathan has exhibited in both national and international shows with several one-man exhibitions
in London.
His amazingly detailed works derive from a love of old
books and of the paraphanalia associated with a bygone age whose hallmarks were finely skilled
labour and exquisite craftsmanship in the production of all manner of objects.
