ART OF THE LANDSCAPE

Painting a favorite scene is like visiting and exploring the place all over again, and using my brushes and colors to tell you what I see.

THE BIOGRAPHY OF ARTIST JOHN FRENCH

John French’s bold use of color and strong composition convey the intense beauty the artist sees in the world around him. His paintings invite the viewer on a journey to ponder a more peaceful and quiet part of the world, away from the bustle and worry of everyday life. 

Born in the 1970 in Santa Fe, NM, John lived in a small New Mexico cattle town with his mother and Air Force father. Before John was ten years old, the Air Force sent the family to Italy. John’s formative years were spent viewing and studying the art and architecture of the Renaissance.

After four years in Italy, the family was transferred to KI Sawyer AFB, in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, where he still lives with his wife and their four dogs.

John’s art is exhibited in galleries in Michigan and Wisconsin.
