"I
draw and paint directly from nature as often and as much as I can. There is no
substitute for this first hand experience, for the intensity of seeing this
generates. I strive to preserve the essence of the field sketch in the ensuing
studio painting which is completed in acrylic, oil or pastel. My aim is to
create something visually interesting in its own right, I love the whole process
of mark making."
2007
was an important year for John with the publication of 'Between the Tides' by
The Langford Press and promotion to full membership of The SWLA. |
