John Morgan

I graduated with a Fine Art degree in 1981 from Coventry (Lanchester) Polytechnic.  Since then I have run art & craft workshops in residential establishments and sold work privately through craft fairs.  Currently I am mostly working in 2D using acrylic although I enjoy working with oils, pastels & watercolour.  I’ve also done a few small 3D pieces – mostly clay.  My work is about capturing a moment, an instant perhaps that can never be repeated.  I try to portray an emotion.  When working on a painting, I like creating challenges, which I then have to solve.  I like to introduce contradiction, ambiguity and a sense of humour.
