John Conway

John Conway is an artist and writer specializing in prehistoric life and speculative biology, blending scientific accuracy with imaginative creativity. He co-authored the influential book "All Yesterdays," which reimagines dinosaurs and other extinct creatures with a focus on plausible behaviors and appearances often overlooked by traditional reconstructions. His work also includes "Cryptozoologicon," a collaborative project exploring cryptids through a scientific lens, merging mythology with paleontological inquiry.

Conway's artistic approach emphasizes scientific understanding while embracing surrealism and anachronistic humor. His illustrations span dinosaurs, pterosaurs, and fantastical subjects, often challenging conventional depictions of prehistoric life. Based in London, he contributes to paleontological literature, combining rigorous research with a playful, accessible style. Beyond writing, Conway's work as a podcaster and artist reflects his multidisciplinary engagement with natural history and pop culture.
