The sea, sail and ships. If they are on the sea, they are inspirational. His subjects are often on the move, so no time to sit and paint them.
Therefore John works from his own photographic images. Living and working in Warwickshire, he's just about as far from the sea as you get. So, many visits to the coast and also sailing. "True understanding of the sea and ships is best achieving by being afloat." In addition to paintings and drawings John has produced a wide range of mixed media linocuts. He prints onto collages of handmade papers, meaning that each print is a one-off original.
