Born in Gibraltar, 1980, Jonathan Tran crawled his way over to Britain at the age of three. Here, as a child, he honed his drawing techniques on doors, walls, wardrobes and any other surfaces he could get his hands on.
It wasn't long until Tran got fed up drawing on furniture and he decided to make his way to Central St. Martins where he did a Foundation Course in illustration, followed by three years at Kent Institute of Art and Design.
Tran is currently represented by Private View, an illustration agency and he now spends most of his time making images. Most of his inspiration comes from other contemporary artists, in all fields, not just illustrators. For example, he is beginning to revisit his Craig David collection for some truly amazing ideas.
