“Il Gatto Del Canale” is the fifth painting in a series “Serie di Venezia” featuring interesting scenes I have witnessed in my travels to Venice Italy. This is a slight departure from the others in the Series because it depicts a specific Scene I witnessed wandering the canals of Venice. This cat, was simply sunning itself in a really interesting window, it literally called out to be painted, so I did. This is painted on a pre-stretched canvas and framed by a custom frame I made. This painting is complete and ready to hang. Painting Details: (All materials used are a mix from mid-late 90’s and contemporary replacements) -Pre-Stretched Canvas, 18x24” and personally prepared with Gesso and an additional original painting “under coat” -Brushes; Grumbacher Bristle, Flat #2, #3, #4, Round #1, Winsor & Newton -Bristle Filbert #2, Princeton Bristle Flat #2, #3 -Paint; Winsor & Newton Artist Colour, Winsor & Newton Winton, Grumbacher PreTested (back when it was good) and Gamblin Artist Oil. 16 different base colors mixed to hue and varying thickness. Liquin and Colbalt dryer agents used to thin paint and speed-up drying time - Final painting was sealed using 2 coats of Gamvar High Gloss after three (3) month “drying” time Custom Frame Details: Shadow Box style frame made of Red Oak by the Artist exclusively for this painting in 2020. - Frame dimensions are 20x26x2 1/8” - Shadow width ¼” from canvas to frame and the frame edge width is 3/4” wide - Frame is Stained and Varnished with 2 coats of Dark Ebony Satin finish - 100lb. rated picture cable (overkill I know…) through stainless steel eye-hooks is used to hang the entire piece.

John is a Professional Photographer and traditionally trained Illustrator who is based out of Los Angeles, CA (aka Hollywood). Having been trained in all aspects of Film Photography in the 90's, where he won the "Most Outstanding Photographer" award his last year at University, he has never really wandered too far away from his film roots and his style and knowledge reflect that education. Currently, he shoots Images for TV shows and Movies where his work is seen around the world and featured in numerous Ad Campaigns. Apart from his "daily Hollywood" work, he considers his "Street Photography" imagery to be his true passion when it comes to his own "pure Photography." ---- With a background in Architecture/Design and Illustration, part of John's Education was in Oil Painting, a medium he instantly fell in love with at University. He has had a couple of start and stops over the years, but is now back in the "studio" whenever he can carve-out the time. John jokingly describes his Oil Paintings as, "Cheaper than going to therapy", and has been re-mused, painting with the passion he had when he first discovered the world of painting. His style has been described and "heavily Impressionistic" and it is something he takes great pride and joy in hearing. Ever challenging himself, John has always been attracted to the Pen & Ink Watercolor style of urban sketching and has now also added that Meduim to his arsenal of Art. "Watercolor is a fascinating medium to work with, it's alive and loves to do its own thing, many, many mysteries." he comments. Welcome to John's Saatchi Page and enjoy exploring.
