Biography
Within the last three years John has held two solo exhibitions at
the Miriam Bailey Gallery, Bandon, Co. Cork. The first of these two
exhibitions, titled 'The Edge Of Jack Barry's Land', proved to be
hugely successful and thus raised public awareness of this artist's
work to a higher platform. In November 2007, John staged a return
exhibition. Aptly named 'From Tuskar To Aran And Beyond',
the paintings again highlighted the depth and progression of his work.
It further promoted this individual freedom of approach and energy, a
freedom which gives him the ability to create a world all of its own,
and yet a world which we can all recognise.
In April of this year, John held a successful exhibition titled
'Spirited Coast' at the Courtyard Gallery, Midleton, Co. Cork.
This exhibition of recent oil paintings contained interpretations
of a wide range of maritime subjects. Portrayals, such as the
liner 'Independence of the Seas' passing Cobh, lifeboat and
pilot boat activity, the death of a whale, the beachcomber,
and many more paintings, conjured up a feast for the eyes in
this pictorial coastal commentary.
