Brad Holland (artist)
Bradford Wayne Holland (born 1943) is an American illustrator, best known for his work for Playboy and Penthouse magazines.
Born in Fremont Ohio, he was the eldest of four brothers. The family moved to Arkansas. At 17, after receiving a rejection of employment application from Walt Disney, and upon graduating from high school, Holland moved to Chicago. He enrolled in the Art Institute of Chicago, but he found the training too restrictive. He found work in a tattoo parlor and later with the John Dioszegi art studio. Holland found himself working long hours there, which left him leaving him little time for his own work. A decision in 1964 to take an eight-hour-a-day job at Hallmark Cards in Kansas City provided time after work to develop his own portfolio. His work consisted of black & white drawing/paintings, which were not "finished art" until after sent out to a service bureau where line negatives were made and sized to produce 8 X 10 prints that would fit into a manageable sized portfolio.
At Hallmark, Holland was promoted to designer in his first year, and quickly moved to bigger projects. Most of his work at Hallmark was illustration for pop-up books and holiday & inspirational publications. He was also supervisor of a new Designer Group - Humorous Illustrative. One member of this new "Group" was Wendell Minor, now a prominent book illustrator and one-time President of the New York Society of Illustrators].
In 1967 Holland moved to New York City. Armed with his portfolio but with no prospects of work he met Art Paul, art director of Playboy magazine. Though he is perhaps best known for his work at Playboy, through his career, he has worked completely as a freelance illustrator. His work has included Avant Garde magazine (1968-1971), and "underground" publications. In 1972 he became a prominent contributor to the New York Times Op-Ed page. In 1977 he published Human Sacandals, a social commentary using ink drawings.
Holland is co-founder of The Illustrators Partnership of America, and advocates the preservation of creative copyrights on intellectual property.
Honors
Holland has won more awards presented by the New York Society of Illustrators than any other illustrator in its long history. In 2005 he was elected to the NYSI Hall of Fame. The American illustrator Mark English has called Holland "the most important illustrator in American today."

Brad Holland
Bradford Wayne Holland (1943) Playboy ve penthouse icin yaptigi calismalarla taninan Amerikali ressam.
Fremont Ohio dogumlu, dort kardesin en buyugu. Daha sonra ailesi Arkansas`a tasindi. 17`sinde Walt Disney`e is basvurusundan ret aldiktan ve Lise`den mezun olduktan sonra, Holland Chicago`ya tasindi. Chicago Sanat Enstutisine kayit yaptirdi ama egitimi cok kisitlayici buldu. Once bir dovme salonunda daha sonra ise John Dioszegi sanat studyosunda calismaya basladi.
Holland orada cok uzun saatler calistigi icin kendi islerine zaman ayiramadigini fark etti. 1964`te Kansas City`de ki Hallmark Cards`ta 8 saatlik isi ve verdigi bu karar, kendisine daha cok zaman ayirmasina ve portfolyosunu gelistirmesine yol acti.
Calismalarinin cogu siyah beyaz cizimlerden ve boyamalardan olusuyordu. Calismalar servis burosuna gidip negatifleri alinip ve boyutlari 8x10 baskilara kucultulene kadar cizimler bitmis sayilmazdi.
Hallmark`ta Holland birinci yilindan sonra grafikerlige terfi ettirildi ve boylece daha buyuk projelerde calismaya basladi. Hallmark`taki calismalarinin cogu 3 boyutlu kitaplar, tatil ve ilham verici yayinlara yaptigi cizimler oldu. Daha sonra yeni kurulan bir grafik tasarim grubu olan `humorous Illustrative`e danismanlik yapti. Bu grubun bir uyesi de daha sonra cok onemli bir cizer olan ve bir zamanlarin Amrika Cizerler birligi baskani Wendell Minor idi.
1967`de Holland New York`a tasindi. Cok iyi bir portfolyo ile fakat calismalarindan beklentisiz bir sekilde Playboy dergisinin sanat yonetmeni Art Paul ile tanisti, buna karsin Holland bugune kadar Playboy icin yaptigi calismalar ile taninir, kariyeri boyunca devamli serbest cizer olarak calisti. Calismalari ayrica `Avant Garde` dergisini (1968-1971) ve `yeralti` yayinlarini da kapsar.
1972 yilinda New York Times`in Op-Ed Sayfasinin en onemli cizeri oldu. 1977`de `Human Scandals` isimli, murekkep cizimler kullandigi, sosyal yorumlu bir calisma yayinladi.
Holland `Amerika cizerler ortakligi` kurucusu, ayrica fikri mülkiyet üzerinde yaratıcı telif haklarının korunması avukatidir.
Basarilari
Holland bugune kadar `New York Ressamlar Dernegi`nin tarihinde verdigi butun odulleri diger cizerlerden daha cok kazanan bir sanatcidir. 2005 Yilinda bu dernegin (NYSI) onur listesine secilmistir.
