Artist’s Notes

I have a wonderful friend and collector in Orlando who works as a pharmacist for Disney World –he also happens to be an incredible wildlife photographer. On one visit to Florida, while my family and I had some free time from showing at Epcot, at the Festival of the Arts, he and his wife took us to Circle B, an amazing wildlife preserve, and the place where he takes a lot of his photos. His images inspired me so much that I wanted to do a painting based on some of my favorites, which is how “Creation” was born. It was a lot of fun working with Dan – who also makes a personal appearance in the piece – working out the titles together, and I’m forever grateful for his permission to use his photographs. From the rivers and creeks of my native Delmarva to the mountains of my current home in the Shenandoah Valley, I’ve always enjoyed spending time in nature and it’s been an important part of my life. I sought to capture some of the wonder and glory I see in the world around us and Dan’s wildlife photography is the perfect vehicle for allowing me to do that. Creating “Creation” was a very enjoyable collaborative project for me and deeply fulfilling!

Born in 1976, John-Mark Gleadow had already achieved gallery representation by the time he received his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Delaware in 1999. Renowned for his skill as a draftsman and ability for creating hyperrealstic oil paintings, he has gone on to garner various awards, solo shows and grants and has been met with commercial success in the numerous galleries carrying his work from coast to coast in the United States and beyond.

Early influences on the young artist were Rene Magritte, Salvador Dali and VerMeer. “I fell in love with the beauty of their imagery and have always been in awe of their amazing gift for depicting reality, or their version of it. My desire is that my abilities would be used for creating works that are beautiful and that, when viewed as a whole, convince the viewer not only that what they’re seeing is real but that there’s truth in it. For that reason I find strict photorealism a somewhat unsatisfying undertaking.”

Beginning with still lives, John-Mark’s paintings soon came to have portraiture as their backbone. With his mastery of the medium his trademark use of vibrant colors has come to the fore – an element of his work made the more fascinating due to his having to cope with his own colorblindness. His most recent series has fused the centuries old theme of painting book spines with his love of doing figurative work and has allowed him to broaden the thematic horizons of his paintings. “The wonderful thing about working in this vain is how limitless the subject matter can be and how it makes for a logical way of juxtaposing entirely different topics, producing a work of art that’s beautiful as a whole, not just aesthetically, but thematically as well.”
