John Donlon

Artistic background

John Donlon is a full time British Artist living in the Northwest of England.
His artwork is a combination of abstract acrylic on canvas and his love of ink drawings.
Exhibited in galleries around the UK. I have sold for charity at auction for Cancer. Sold work for a number of charities. My main medium of choice is acrylic as I love the serendipitous nature of it , so exciting albeit a tad unpredictable! I use any medium though, whichever I feel suits the subject.

Interests

The serendipitous behaviour of acrylic is a thrill and a challenge. my inspiration is in Movement, light, fast moving energy. Inks by their flowing nature are the ideal mediums to use for my drawings. My subjects tend to be wide and varied, though colours are my favourite. We have such a strong emotional connection with them. I especially enjoy to semi abstract the natural world. So overwhelmed and moved by everything. Creating through the medium of art is to reflect such wonder.
