Patrick James Woodroffe (b. 1940 Halifax, West Yorkshire) is an English artist, etcher and drawer, who

specialises in fantasy science-fiction artwork, with images that border on the surreal. His achievements

include several collaborations with well-known musicians, two bronze sculptures displayed in

Switzerland and numerous books.

His career took off when he was asked to produce approximately 90 book cover paintings between 1973

and 1976 for Corgi, including Peter Valentine Timlett's The Seedbearers (1975) and Roger Zelazny's Nine

Princes in Amber (1974). During this early period he was also commissioned to provide art for record

album cover sleeves, including heavy metal band Judas Priest's album Sad Wings of Destiny (1976). This

was followed by an exhibition of book-jacket and record-sleeve paintings in 1976, which appeared at

Mel Calman's Workshop Gallery in London. That year the children's book Micky's New Home was

published with illustrations by Woodroffe. In 1978 he mounted an exhibition of more than two hundred

works at the historic Piece Hall in Halifax.
