John Rawsterne

I hate to put myself into just one small category so I’m going to call myself a freelance artist, designer, illustrator and photographer. Art is my passion.

I work in lots of different mediums and often combine several of them to make a finished piece. My work is varied and experimental.

Each piece has a personal meaning to me but I don’t explain it. I like to let the viewer interpret the work as they see it.

Subjects are drawn from both real and imaginary sources.

Some of the work you see here is for sale. I also accept commissions. Please use the contact form if you want to get in touch.

If you see a painting you like but would like a particular size, a different colour etc. then please contact me.

Most of my paintings are supplied on box edged canvas so they’re ready to hang without a frame. Prints can be professionally mounted and framed if required.

My favourite artists are Turner and Van Gogh. The way turner captures light is fantastic. Van Gogh’s paintings have a real energy and vibrancy. My favourite living artist is Lucian Freud.
