About The Artwork
“City Dreams” is a custom Commissioned painting done for a life-long Client of mine based on an idea he floated to me a few years ago. This is a slight departure from my normal Style and technique due to the desires of the Client however, the entire process was a dream and I’m really happy how it all turned out. This painting concept was conceived on a bar napkin and brought to life through the eyes of the Client’s specific desire; a Non Descript City Landscape, at sunset with the changing sky colors. This is a massive, 3 panel painting made to fit specifically over the Client’s couch in the living room of his new house. This piece is painted on 3 custom panel pieces and framed with a custom frame. It was complete and ready to hang upon delivery. Painting Details: -Custom 3 panel pieces prepared with 3 coats of Blick Professional Gesso and an additional original painting “under coat” -Brushes; Grumbacher Bristle, Flat #2, #3, #4, Round #1, Winsor & Newton -Bristle Filbert #2, Princeton Bristle Flat #2, #3, Davinci Kolnsky Flat #2 and Escoda Clasico Chungking White Flat #6 #8 -Paint; Winsor & Newton Artist Colour, Gamblin Artist Oil, Old Holland Oil Colors, Blockx Oil Colors and Sennelier Artist Oil. 22 different base colors mixed to hue and varying thickness. Liquin and Colbalt dryer agents used to thin paint and speed-up drying time - Final painting was sealed using 2 coats of Gamvar High Gloss after three (3) month “drying” time Custom Frame Details: Shadow Box style frame made of Red Oak by the Artist exclusively for this painting in 2020. - Frame dimensions are 52x36x2 1/2” - Shadow width ¼” from canvas to frame and the frame edge width is 3/4” wide - Frame is Stained and Varnished with 2 coats of Dark Ebony Satin finish - 100lb. rated picture cable through stainless steel eyehooks is used to hang the entire piece. As always, I welcome the opportunity to discuss making a similar Original Commissioned Piece (it will NOT be a copy, but shall have the same feel as the original). All Commissioned Painting requests are welcomed.

John is a Professional Photographer and traditionally trained Illustrator who is based out of Los Angeles, CA (aka Hollywood). Having been trained in all aspects of Film Photography in the 90's, where he won the "Most Outstanding Photographer" award his last year at University, he has never really wandered too far away from his film roots and his style and knowledge reflect that education. Currently, he shoots Images for TV shows and Movies where his work is seen around the world and featured in numerous Ad Campaigns. Apart from his "daily Hollywood" work, he considers his "Street Photography" imagery to be his true passion when it comes to his own "pure Photography." ---- With a background in Architecture/Design and Illustration, part of John's Education was in Oil Painting, a medium he instantly fell in love with at University. He has had a couple of start and stops over the years, but is now back in the "studio" whenever he can carve-out the time. John jokingly describes his Oil Paintings as, "Cheaper than going to therapy", and has been re-mused, painting with the passion he had when he first discovered the world of painting. His style has been described and "heavily Impressionistic" and it is something he takes great pride and joy in hearing. Ever challenging himself, John has always been attracted to the Pen & Ink Watercolor style of urban sketching and has now also added that Meduim to his arsenal of Art. "Watercolor is a fascinating medium to work with, it's alive and loves to do its own thing, many, many mysteries." he comments. Welcome to John's Saatchi Page and enjoy exploring.
