Portrait by 

Karen LaValley

 John became interested in the simple line drawing when a student at Columbia. For over 40 years I have sketched my experiences, from service in the military,  travels in Asia, Europe, the Caribbean (including Cuba), Alaska, and the U.S., and figure models. "Replacing the Camera" was the  title of a recent one man show which accurately describes my focus. My works are displayed in Europe, U.S., and Asia, in private homes and government offices. They have been used by  academic institutions in publications and correspondence, as well as designer prints for clothing. Since the style is "everyman's art" I have named it "inconsequential art". 

To the public, I only sell 8" x 10" signed & numbered prints at a set price of $10 each.
