About John Small
Welcome to my site! As an artist, illustrator, and writer, I have a passion for creating pieces that tell stories and evoke emotion.
I'm also the 12th generation of my family living here, beginning four centuries ago.
My unique blend of art and storytelling allows me to express myself, as well as interpret the thoughts and feelings of others.
Whether I'm working on a traditional canvas or in digital media, my goal is to bring my vision to life and share it with the world.
Artist Mission Statement
Mix narrative styles of illustration with a blend of Realism and whimsical – stir gently together and fold in stories from an overactive imagination.
Simmer slowly – and let the magic begin!
My artwork tells a story – my stories paint a picture.
Looking back, I’ve always imagined tales of ‘what if’s’ – what may yet come to be – and what could linger just beyond the corners of our imagination, stirring gently in the shadows - or roaring from the thicket in the woods.
