In recent years John has become renowned for his dark and atmospheric paintings. In this, the final video in his Master Series, John takes you through his thought process before finalizing a design concept. Watch as he takes a well-illuminated animal or bird and conceals it with his unique technique of multiple glazes; finally emphasizing and/or introducing an interesting light source such as moonlight. See how he places his subjects in shadow and illuminates other elements of the painting or obscures his subjects with mist, rain and snow to create a mood of tranquility or drama. 90 min.
