Welcome to this special edition of The Grateful Web: Rogue Studios 30@30 celebrating 30 years of Rogue Artists’ Studios in Manchester.
Today I’m joined by John Hamilton a painter, illustrator, and printmaker based at Rogue since 1995. John has exhibited widely across the UK and internationally, with work held in collections from Australia to Germany and the USA.
Alongside painting, drawing, and printmaking, John also writes and illustrates childrens books. His titles include The Boy Who Really Really Really Loves Lizards, published by Manchester Museum, and The Girl Who Really Really Really Loves Dinosaurs published by the Natural History Museum in London.
At the heart of John’s artwork are figures in disguise, caught in mischievous or theatrical moments—like stills from a play or film. His images are playful, sometimes mysterious, always inviting the viewer to imagine the story unfolding beyond the frame.
