As an architect I am particularly interested in texture and composition in my drawings and paintings. My long experience of detailed drawing landscape, life studies and, of course, buildings, is the background on which my painting style developed. I am increasingly looking at abstract elements, but usually with a starting point of representational images. The use of different materials to keep a fresh approach to each subject helps to make the activity of painting and drawing always exciting.
Sadly, John Nixon died in 2021. His work will be remembered in a future Annual Exhibition.
