John Patton

I am a biotechnologist/scientist/artist who took up oil painting at the age of 50 after many years of visiting the world's art galleries. I realized I was "visually" oriented at the age of 31 while making my best discovery in a microscope. I love color and strikingly beautiful images - especially abstract and strikingly unusual biology images. I love big paintings.

A few of my favorite painters include Hans Hoffman, Nicolas De Stael, Piet Mondrian, Robert Delauney, Carolyn Ellingson, Joan Mitchell, Helen Frankenthaller, Vasily Kandinski and Henri Matisse. Do not like Pollock, Motherwell, Rothko. I am just learning but I have the chance to become very successful artist - people like my paintings - they are upbeat. Save my paintings, they will be worth a ton of money someday. This is just my first decade - I heard artists do their best in their 2nd decade. Watch out!
