Gary John has been a street artist since 1985. Originally from Seattle, Washington, he moved to Venice Beach, Los Angeles in 2003 and began selling his work on the Venice boardwalk. After almost ten years, John exploded onto the international art scene for his bold works.
His street artworks have a whimsical yet exciting and bold quality, inspired by classic cartoon and comic book characters rendered with acrylic paint in a bold graffiti style, on newspaper, magazine pages or cardboard. His mixed media works blur the boundaries between Pop Art and Abstract Expressionism mixed with Street Art.
This vibrant 22-inch tall by 23-inch wide acrylic painting on newspaper contains the quintessential elements of Gary John. This unique artwork is dated and signed on the front with the first two letters of Gary John's first and last name: "GA JO." A certificate of authenticity issued by the gallery is included. Convenient Continental US shipping and affordable worldwide shipping is available.
John cites Pablo Picasso, Keith Haring, and Jean-Michel Basquiat as his artistic inspiration. Other influences are comic books and American pop culture. His original artworks add a new face to the continuous popularity of pop art.
John says about his art: “I grew up in a dysfunctional home. I always got lost in my art as an escape. Art is my passion. There is not enough time in the day to do all the paintings I want to do. I’m consumed with it.”
