John Cannavan is a Scottish artist, working mainly in oils, who paints Scottish Landscape, Seascape and animals. Often working on a small scale in a box-canvas format, John's work glows with colour, and he uses a very 'saturated' rich palette. Shadows cast by hills and houses are painted in rich hues of purples and reds, and this lends his cityscapes a tremendous warmth and depth.

John Cannavan DA BA Hons studied drawing and painting at Gray's School of Art before gaining an Hons degree in Art History. John qualified as an art teacher, and taught in Scottish schools for 33 years. He has a house in Glenlivet, the inspiration for so many of his paintings which have been exhibited widely, and can be found in many private collections.
