He has been a guest instructor at the University of Colorado, Denver, as well as elementary and middle schools. His studio and sculpture garden are in Granby, CO.
John was born in rural Indiana, and was raised by depression era parents, who valued simplicity and function, something he tries to continue to value today. As a young man John began his creative work in photography. John travelled the world spending the most time in Asia and the Pacific.
socio-economic conditions he realized that beauty was not limited to any one culture, geography or religion, and that similarities occur throughout the world. He settled in Hawaii for a time before moving to Denver.
John moved to Colorado in 1989, where he feels he will finish out his life. John currently resides in Granby, CO, with his wife and his two faithful shop dogs.
Creation. I.E. Something from nothing, or something from a collection of raw materials that simply “becomes”. Simply put, I love creating.
Throughout my journey, I have found recurring themes that continue to evolve in my work. Inter-dimensionality, nature and reflections on myth and faith.
My work often includes the use of linear planes to create depth and three-dimensional space.
It is very important that all my work reclaim raw materials where, and whenever possible. This is part of the creative challenge of my work, incorporating current and past technology into the creation.
