How many times have you wished you could take an oil painting workshop from a professional artist? For many of us, for a number of reasons, a workshop has only been a dream. I am so very excited to announce this wish is coming true! John Cox a respected Fine Artist and past Instructor of the Scottsdale Artist School will host a three-week online workshop this summer for the Classical Forum.
John has had a rare ability over the years to see the beauty of the west and translate it onto canvas. John started his artistic life drawing and working with watercolors but over the years, his primary medium has been oils. In addition to his career as a Fine Artist, John continued Bill Hughes’ classes for five years teaching basic oil painting and landscape workshops. Many artists have contracted John for private lessons in realistic painting. Art of The West has featured John in their magazine as well as numerous other publications.
Two museums own work by John, one in Pueblo, Colorado and one in Oregon. His work has also been in the Arts for The Parks top 100 the two years he entered, and has won awards for Best of Show, Watercolors (Gold and Silver), Oils (Gold and Silver) and Best Overall Display. His work is in private and corporate collections in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom and Japan. DuPont Chemical, Foundation For Environmental Studies, Tyson Foods, Crescent Cardboard, Federal Land and Cattle Corp., Brown Oil Tool Corp to name a few.
John sells his work in a few galleries around the country, on his website, and at a couple of shows each year. One show is the Cheyenne Frontier Days Art Show and Sale at the Old West Museum in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The Heritage Galleries in Scottsdale, Arizona is his main gallery. Also John is represented in Texas, New Mexico and Colorado galleries.
