Visual Arts Programs

For over 35 years, John has built his career around a deep love for art, especially drawing.

He began chasing dreams in the film industry as a special effects makeup artist, but along the way, discovered a surprising path in toy and product development.

John’s clients have often described him as a chameleon: able to adapt, solve problems creatively, and bring visions to life.

He wears many hats including being a muralist, airbrush artist, graphic designer, teacher, coach, and more. Being self-employed has taught him a lifetime’s worth of lessons, and now he finds immense joy in sharing that wisdom.

Whether he’s teaching a class or workshop, coaching a young or seasoned artist, or speaking at a professional event, John is passionate about helping artists build their own path in the art world and turning their talent into a sustainable, fulfilling career.
