NO COMPUTERS WERE USED IN THE CREATION OF THESE WORKS I was born in a small county town in the Mallee region of Victoria,in 1950.At an early age my interest the arts was shaped by my parents interest in the arts .My fathers had a great love of the French Impressionists and post impressionists.I was fascinated by there use of colour to create an illusion of shape and depth as in these artists[Van Gogh ,Monet ,Manet,etc, ]. later i was influenced by Piet Mondrian with his use of pure colour in a controlled and disciplined manner.i was impressed by his balance and harmony ,with his simple use of colour and basic shapes.I am now working as an ENVIRONMENTAL EXPRESSIONIST.these days i try work clean free of outside influences ,take my inspiiration from both nature and human nature. Good art is window to the soul of the artist,a reflection of the true inner self .It should reflect or be a reflection of community standards.For the observer good art should touch the soul and reflect on ones values. find me at bushiejohns.com |
