For John growing up in the beautiful Blue Mountains instilled a deep love of the rugged grandeur, spectacular colours and the many moods they inspired.
Whilst always fascinated by paintings and artists, John did not pursue his interest in art with real seriousness until his mid twenties. He had been working as a professional musician and wandered into painting as a hobby.
It was not long before he decided to devote himself completely to becoming an artist.
