John Lamonby
Embracing the intuitive form of expression, is the way John explains his art. Although this
seems like shorthand for a complex reasoning to me. John has his studio in Portugal, having
been born and raised in the North East of England. He made his mark in Art by painting the
natural world around him in the UK. However, a change happened in his ‘subject-matter’
when life became more of a survival conundrum rather than a certainty. Luckily for ‘art’ this is
a resolved situation and now his focus is to paint from a purely expressive viewpoint and from
within, rather than from external references.
