Shooting John
John is a painter, educator, spiritual warrior and all-around great guy. He's studied the masters and their medium of choice - oils, which helps to explain why his art evokes the richness and luminous quality of the classics. Something more evolved is revealed when the muse calls on John, though. His canvas becomes a window for seeing images in a pure, inspired light, whether a gathering of peaches, a woman in reflection, or an angel frolicking in a meadow. Someday he'll be hanging in the Met instead of with me and my camera, but you can say you knew him when.
