Landscape is the main focus of John’s work , generally using a contemporary, semi-abstract style in acrylics with some mixed media and collage. He relishes trying to discover and portray fresh elements in what might seem conventional scenes, and to extract something of the beauty of places and objects often overlooked as ordinary or unpicturesque.

Colourful landscapes and collages have recently been featured in his works. These bring together a variety of recollected images and aspects of a landscape, creating a striking effect at once different from one’s normal perceptions and yet evoking clearly their origin.

Over the years John has received many awards in exhibitions in the Blue Mountains and in Sydney.

John’s paintings are represented in collections in Australia, New Zealand, USA, and the United Kingdom.
