Luna

 This series of paintings was created with a loose thematic connection in mind, and while each piece is a completely separate stand alone work I imagine them also acting as stepping stones for an imagined story.

“Luna” A painting that references characters and elements from all the other paintings. The skull is that of a rabbit, the crescent moon seen in other paintings has now become full. The luna moth appearing in other paintings takes center stage and displays the skull shaped marks on its wings as enveloping moonflowers release their stars to the sky. 

John Walker has been working as a professional artist for over thirty years. After graduating from The American Academy of Art he began a career in illustration, creating a wide array of artwork for clients nationwide, including McDonalds, Random House and National Geographic. Acrylics became his media of choice during this time and he has become fluent in their application. His focus has now shifted to painting and exhibiting personal work centered around imagined narratives and faux antiquities from an invented culture.
