Artist of the Month: John Williams

John Williams

“When I started painting I didn’t think that it would be such an emotional journey.  I guess it shouldn’t have been a surprise after all the time, thought and even expense that goes into a piece.  Maybe that’s why it is always going to be exciting to see an entry short listed or selected to show.

I try and enjoy the suspense and excitement before hand but do have to tell myself not to get emotionally wrapped up in the process, selection or no selection. Exhibitions are obviously a great way to build your CV but I have found that the people you meet and connections you make along the wayare equally as valuable.

For me it’s all about getting out there.”
