John Paul Bike Shed Like many things hereMeet John Paul. Painted from life in California of a fellow artist and friend. To anyone who knows him, this painting may come as a surprise. He is a talker, a prolific, animated, and energetic story teller and capturing him from life was a unique challenge but the movement and energy translated so well into this painting. It feels more full of life than the average bored, drifting towards sleep life models that would have been more easily painted.
