He escaped work in a carpet factory to study at the Glasgow School of Art, and has since carved out a successful dual career as an artist and a writer.

John Byrne's biography reflects his diverse talents. He has designed theatre sets and record covers. The immensely successful television series "Tutti Frutti" appeared in 1987. All these achievements have developed alongside Byrne's artistic career, whichtook off in 1967 when he assumed the identity of 'Patrick' for a solo show.
