Johnman

Johnman, artist profile image

Johnman likes to take old or familiar objects and breath new life into them by using them as his canvas and artistic inspiration. Inspired by Graffiti’s roots with the painting of trains; he set about spray painting intricately hand cut stencils onto train tickets, old signs, and other media which are then hand finished with acrylic ink in his own unique style.

This work is interspersed with occasional humorous, brightly coloured works on more conventional stretched canvases.

British born; Johnman started his journey into the urban art world with Devon’s Arts Anonymous. He now resides in Dublin. 

A self proclaimed romantic, this is often reflected in his artwork. If you know where he’s exhibiting or painting then keep your eyes peeled for one of his hand painted pebbles, inscribed with his mantra “The best things in life aren’t things”.
