John worked as an illustrator in the advertising world for over 15 years. Now retired, John is painting and drawing in earnest again, not that he ever stopped.
John’s Marine series draws on his early years as a member of Broken Bay Game Fishing Club and more importantly, on his years of sailing, and snorkeling around the islands of the Great Barrier Reef in the Whitsundays Queensland where John lived for many years.
Whether realistic or abstract, John creates visually engaging paintings. He draws the viewer into the scene, giving them an experience of a place or object.
